Who's an alien and who's human? Find out in this tense game based on John Carpenter's The Thing.
Description:
"The Thing is a game that mixes different mechanisms to create an experience that is as faithful as possible to that of the original film. It is a "hidden role" game, in which one player is initially the Thing and the others players are humans. The purpose of the Thing is to infect others, to prevent the survivors from escaping from the base, or to try to escape with them by behaving as a human. In addition to these elements, players also have to manage Outpost 31. Human players have to feed themselves and keep the boiler and the generator on to avoid being in the cold and dark. The Thing will try to sabotage these places to make life difficult for humans...or not, trying to camouflage itself among the humans and infect them when the perfect opportunity presents itself.

This is the 2022 Kickstarter. One of the players is The Thing, hiding amongst the human players. Experience the paranoia of the classic John Carpenter film as the humans try to avoid assimilation.
Description:
Keep Outpost 31 running, summon the rescue helicopter or fix the snow cat or base helicopter, try to stay fed and attempt to discover and destroy the thing. Cooperate with your fellow players, but beware, one of them could be The Thing! Game time includes set-up, rules explanation and game play.

The Alien's true objective is to escape from the base, choosing to hide itself and collaborating with humans, or to reveal its true nature, playing a monster to openly assimilate all the team members.
Description:
Humans must try to survive, maintaining outpost 31 and choosing the best way to escape among the three available, but most important they have to test the other team members to reveal the alien and find who is still human. The road to victory is truly hard, but not impossible. Be careful though! The paranoia of not knowing who you really have on your side may cloud your decisions!
