Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps! is a co‑operative survival board game in which you and your team of specialist Colonial Marines will gear up with serious firepower and head into Hadley’s Hope to find survivors and answers. But you’re not alone. To survive, you’ll need to work together, keep your cool, and stay frosty to fight off relentless Xenomorph ambushes and get out of there alive.
Players can play up to six different missions, taking them into different areas from the Hadley’s Hope terraforming facility to the deep, dark recesses of an xenomorph nest. Aliens also offers an exciting campaign mode to play four of the missions linked together, so players will need to fight relentless xenomorph attacks and keep each other alive all the way to the end of the campaign. The remaining two missions are purely about survival, it’s kill or be killed. The players are dropped into the game with nothing more than a pistol. They will need to scavenge weapons and gear while hordes of Xenomorph aliens are trying to get at them. How long can you survive against the odds?

I would give this game more stars, as I do really enjoy some of the gameplay mechanics. But... the solo/2p rules are simply wrong (Use 3 motion track (MT) cards during Alien Act, really helps game play), Bug Hunt seems too drawn out (recommend cutting 2nd MT deck in half and playing till you run out) and their current rules allow for an obscene amount of aliens to enter the board (too long and arduous maybe even impossible to win), 8 page FAQ had to be released, and OH YEAH the ELEPHANT in the ROOM - YOU HAVE TO GLUE ALL YOUR MINIATURES TOGETHER (2-3hrs not including dry time). So... Once you get past these issues and the feeling that you are working for Gale Force Nine to get the game you want - You can finally jump into some really fun movie-driven action!

it captures the tension and feeling of the movies but as a game has some flaws and the assembly of minis was almost a deal breaker for me.

One of the best dungeon crawlers out there--intense enough to make your hair stand on end, but not so hard that you never win. I love this game, especially as a solo player!
