The Thing: The Boardgame - Norwegian Outpost

The Thing - Norwegian Outpost is a 4-8 player expansion for The Thing - The Boardgame, which throws you into the events of the 2011 film set on Thule Station, the Norwegian station where it all began.

Norwegian Outpost presents new mechanics that give players even more excitement and gameplay options. As in the base game, the key lies in the emulation abilities of The Thing, who hides his true identity under a cloak of fake humanity. Once again, the Alien will try to escape, either with the UFO or with the Dog Escape, and spread everywhere!

The mechanics are different on many levels and will lead players to different choices. First, the Humans can escape individually this time. Those who manage to escape are immediately declared winners, while the others just continue playing. In addition, the escape vehicles are ready to be used from the start, making the risk of the Alien escaping real enough to persuade the Humans to voluntarily sabotage their own vehicles, making the importance of the Sabotage action even greater.

Thanks to the Dental Record, a tool for determining who is truly human, it becomes possible to reveal who is a Human. To do this, you use the Flashlight, a tool with a new, important role.

This expansion is not compatible with the 1 to 3 player version of the base game.
