Space Alert board game

Space Alert is a cooperative team-based survival game. Players become members of the crew of a small spaceship that scans the dangerous sectors of the galaxy. Missions last only 10 minutes in real time (hyperspace jump, sector scan, hyperspace jump back) and players' only task is to protect their ship.

During the game, the central computer will alert you of various threats in one of the provided 10-minute sound tracks that also act as a game timer. Threats range from space battleships and interceptors to various interstellar monsters and abominations, asteroids or even intruders and spacecraft malfunctions. Players must agree on who will perform which task and coordinate their actions (moving around the ship, firing weapons, distributing energy, using battlebots to fight intruders, launching guided missiles, etc.) in real time to protect the ship. Only a well-functioning team can survive 10 minutes and jump back to safety.

The game offers multiple levels of difficulty, huge variability and a unique experience for teams of one to five players One mission only takes about 30 minutes, including setup and evaluation.
