Overview

Nemesis places you and your fellow players aboard a spaceship plagued by hostile alien lifeforms. As crew members awakened from cryosleep, you must complete your individual objectives and ensure the survival of the ship, all while contending with the ever-present threat lurking in the shadows. Each player has a hidden objective, potentially conflicting with others, and the semi-cooperative nature of the game demands careful consideration of who to trust and when to act in your own self-interest.

The game features dice rolling for combat and various skill checks, adding an element of chance and suspense to every encounter. With a modular board and varied scenarios, each playthrough presents a unique and terrifying experience. Player elimination is possible, further raising the stakes as paranoia and distrust consume the crew in their struggle for survival. Will you work together to overcome the alien threat, or will your personal objectives drive you to betray your fellow crewmates in a desperate bid for survival?
