This Game Is Killer: Alien on Board

Players are crew aboard a cramped cargo ship while an alien prowls the corridors. Each round, players are dealt two cards and assign one as their position and one as their action by playing one card now and the other when turns reverse, so everyone ends the round with a location and an action. After assignments, the alien’s location is revealed. Players sharing that location with the highest priority number are eliminated, and some crew actions can also kill others. Rounds are quick and eliminations frequent; the goal is to survive and, if possible, trap and eject the alien before it kills the crew.
