This rule book is amazing quality. Even if I didn’t play Alien RPG, I’d still want this on my shelf. This book covers so much of the Alien universe that any fan would proudly display on their shelf.

I love RPGs, and Alien is at the top of my list

Get it. Get scared. Have fun. Great atmospheric and involving sci-fi RPG.

Love this setting. Lots of great info. The stress inducing scenarios are fantastic. Fun to play with true fans.

Fun

While I like the Alien Universe, the game itself is extremely rules light in its handling of the game. For some this is a plus, for others, like me, it's an adjustment. Most of this book is just an info dump with most of the rules covering the last quarter of the book. Yes, it has several really good cinematic, (Campaign) adventures to choose from with the ability to create more from this base. This being said, I don't think this game is suited for the novice game master. It requires pacing and a lot of ad libbing rather than a cogent straight forward approach. I do highly recommend this book for anyone interested in this genre, it has a lot of useful information and ideas, but just like the rest of the books in this game system, it is very rules light.

Free League makes and produces amazing RPG productsThis is another great addition to the ALIEN gameMore characters, more gear, more stories and more monsters!

We played the box set. The atmosphere matched that of Alien. The next adventure involved a platoon of Marines. It was fun. In both adventures there was a high death rate.We are starting a campaign, it feels different than the cinematic adventure and no one has died yet, although almost everyone was broken at the end.
