one of my absolute favs. it’s a co-op where one player is randomly, secretly a cylon, sabotaging the groups efforts.
you can toss people in the brig. theyll protest “Im not the cylon!!!” and if youre wrong (youre often wrong), the group suffers by losing the jailed character’s special ability, while trying to fight off an attack until managing to jump.
best part? half way through, you draw new loyalty cards. sleeper cylon activated!!!
its genuinely hard not to run out of food, or water, or just get overrun by a boarding party. some of the best fun losing Ive ever had
Truly it’s a hard game even if there were no cylons. Humans rarely win in my games. Alas, it’s out of print 😭. Its spiritual successor Unfathomable seems good as well, though I’ve only played it once
Then you discover the board game and it’s a whole new level of great
Board game you say?
