Description
In the frozen wilderness of Antarctica, a group of researchers at Outpost 31 are about to face their worst nightmare. A hostile alien has infiltrated the facility, creating a perfect imitation of one of the crew members, and it's up to you to figure out who it is. In The Thing: Infection at Outpost 31, you'll play as one of twelve characters, working together to investigate the facility and purge the alien infection before it's too late. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, this game is perfect for 4 to 8 players who love a good horror theme and a dash of science fiction. As you use supplies and equipment to clear the building, tension will mount and paranoia will ensue, making you question who you can trust. Will you be able to save humanity, or will the alien infection spread?
