The Thing: Norwegian Outpost (Expansion)

The Thing: Norwegian Outpost is a 4–8 player expansion for The Thing: TheBoardgame that throws you into the events of the 2011 movie that happened atThule Station, the Norwegian station where it all began.

Norwegian Outpost presents new mechanics, giving players even more tensionand gameplay opportunities. As in the base game, the key lies in the emulationabilities of The Thing, hiding its true identity under a cover of fake humanity.Once again, the Alien will try to escape, with the UFO or with the Dog Escape,and spread everywhere!

The mechanics are different on many levels and will lead the players todifferent choices. First, this time the Humans can escape individually. Anyonewho manages to escape will immediately be declared a winner, while the otherswill continue to play as normal. Furthermore, the escape vehicles are ready touse from the beginning, making the risk of the Alien escaping real enough toconvince the humans to voluntarily sabotage their own vehicles, adding to theimportance of the Sabotage action.

Thanks to the Dental Record, a tool to determine who is really human, it willbe possible to reveal who is a Human. For this purpose, you will use theFlashlight, a tool with a new, important role.
