Review: Favorite game - My husband loved this game and wanted to add it to our collection so ofc I got him it. I’m not very proficient at board games and while this one has a TON of well-crafted pieces, it’s very easy to understand how to play once you get the ball rolling. Very fun, good re-play ability, and has fun expansion packs.
Review: Nemesis is my favorite game. It is complex, demanding, and fun that just doesn't quit. - There is not a single downside to this game (unless your typical game night excedes five players). The main game is "semi-cooperative”. You must work together to survive. You could get knocked out of the game on the second turn, permanently. But you also have personal objectives that might tempt you into deceit, sabotage, and murder. There are also Fully Cooperative and Revive Modes that eliminate paranoia and promote deeper compassion and communication. There's even a single-player mode! Optionally, the first player to die can play as the Intruders, making an already overwhelming enemy more threatening. Worth the pricetag, every dollar your spend is packed into the game. This is a well-designed and organized game box: a place for everything and everything in its place. High-quality and gorgeously detailed plastic figures, a double-sided game board (standard and harder layout), detailed instructions, handy reference cards, great artwork and more. A short story you can read aloud sets the drama while actually teaching the game's flow. My group played last weekend, and we couldn't help role-playing our characters. NOT our usual game night!! Intense with moments of screaming hilarity. If you like games like Catan, Twilight Imperium, Gloomhaven, etc. OR if you are a fan of the Alien movie franchise, consider this a MUST BUY.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the kickstarter version?**
A: This is the retail kickstarter version.  Mechanic + fifth player expansion + play as intruder, etc.  No carnomorphs, voidseekers, terrain, aftermath untold stories 1&2.

**Q: How long to learn the game to where you can play it? Is it overly complex, or would it take an hour to teach someone the rules?**
A: It probably depends on your experience with somewhat more complex games and your experience explaining them, but I’d say somewhere between 20 minutes to 1 hour. (Other factors would include your comfort with  these particular rules, your groups comfort with moderate complexity games, how many questions they have, etc...) A game like this isn’t the most complex game to explain, but it’s one that has a decent amount of little rules to go over. With my gaming group I normally would take 15-35 minutes with a game like this (I can’t recall how long it actually took.) 

For background, I’m the one that always explains rules to games and having been doing it for over a decade. My experience with going over the rules for somewhat more complex games comes from games like Twilight Imperium (30 minutes - 1 hour) and War of the Ring (30 minutes - 1 hour) etc... This is also a game that you can explain some rules as they come up (like combat) but others should be explained beforehand (surprise attack > cards in hand)

I’d also add that if you plan on playing coop, you wouldn’t need to explain everything immediately, because you guys won’t be against each other and you can help as you go along. This is a game where you CAN (mostly) explain rules as they come up if you’d rather do that.

Hope this helps!

**Q: Are the minis preprinted for painting?**
A: I'm not sure what preprinted for painting means but they are just little plastic 3D minis with a good amount of little details.  I did paint them and they came out pretty good. for the crew members you are going to need some tiny brushes .

**Q: Is the minis sundrop?**
A: No, the sundrop minis was a special kickstarter version.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Huge game and worth the money
*by K***P on January 5, 2026*

I went back and forth for weeks on purchasing nemesis, i finally gave in and ordered. Because of this game I now have a dedicated board game group JUST for nemesis. Its a hit. It takes awhile to play, the instructions are quite extensive, and i dont recommend this for those newer to board games. Its a large box and once everything is on the table it requires tons of space, dont get this unless you have a long table to play on. Two of the miniatures came broken inside of the box prior to me receiving it. I super glued them back together and theyve been fine since. Additonally part of my box broken when putting the lid back on, i think this game could use a more durable box. Overall I love the game and highly recommened it, as every playthrough feels different and engaging.
