This game sounds fun, the rules allow for fast resolution and keep the story going. love it. A Player not understanding basic Science Fiction tropes like sensors, not fun to watch. Breaks the story flow when the Host/Keeper/DM has to pause and explain fundamentals regularly. Otherwise, great time. THumbs + and subscribed.

Really great cinematic scenario, and the GM (Game Mother) was super great. I got a lot to tips on how to run the game because of this video, so that's awesome. And I loved the GM's story about running this for a group of Girl Scouts. So cool.

I love watching this game blossom into something even more amazing, as the RPG community takes ownership of it and makes it their own. The setting is awesome, but this is the stuff that will flesh it out and make it a real universe full of terror. I LOVE this!

Mother/GM/Narrator left out some important details when they board the ship. "To open the outer airlock door requires a laser welder and a HEAVY MACHINERY roll. Inside, a ladder leads down into the main airlock junction, down to decks B and C. Covered in scuff and scratch marks on the inside, the door does not close again once opened. After breaching the buckled door, the PCs must connect the Montero’s passageway umbilical to the Cronus and pressurize it before opening the inner airlock door. If the umbilical is damaged, the airlock suffers explosive decompression (see page 71). The other airlock doors operate properly." This gives the crew/players the sense that something isn't right to begin with.

One thing i noticed is that the Game Mother Said that a certain ability could be used once per scene and that meant once per gaming session but as i have come to understand from previous free league games once per scene means just that once per scene . Think about it like a movie , once per scene in the movie/game you can use the ability . The crew is fixing the hyperdrive thats One scene and the ability can be used during that scene after that scene plays out the crew is in a spaceport thats a new scene and the ability can be used again andso om and so on

a ladder leads down into the main airlock junction, down to decks B and C. Covered in scuff and scratch marks on the inside, the door does not close again once opened. Where does it show a stairwell on the map, also the Umbilical between the two ships is required and has to be pressurized to open the outer airlock otherwise it causes explosive decompression. This says that the Umbilical is not the way the GM described it but a fully enclosed air pressurized structure not 4 poles with a line going down through the middle of it. I just noticed several narrator mistakes but other then that the story is pretty funny and it has cleared up a couple of rules issue I had questions about, but hopefully the later sessions will make more rules sense as he stated that he isn't fully aware of the game rules at this time.

Really, a pink card for getting triggered and frightened by an RPG scenario? This is the Alien Universe. If you cant handle sanity-shattering horror, blood soaked gore, and claustrophobic anxiety you are playing the wrong game.

Old comment I know but yeah the scenario in the starter kit takes on lore introduced in Covenant as those two movies are canon in the game (but no AvP yet TT). It does still have lots of calls to the older movies though and the other main scenario box so far is very kick ass in terms of classic Alien(s) feel. The story actually kind of explains the lore and process of the creatures too which makes them more interesting (Covenant really sucked though didn't it)
