Overview
What ABG knows about this game
A cooperative survival game where the group play as a rescue team inside the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The main objective of the game is rescue the survivors spread across the whole plant while trying to avoid the radiation and the collapses. It has a modular board with 22 rooms. The rooms start face down and the player should discover them one by one until they found the survivors, the walkie-talkies and the heliport. For winning the game the players should transport the survivors to the heliport. If a player's character dies during the game, he loses, even if the rest of the players achieve to win the game. The game also offers a competitive mode where the players should balance the team cooperation for being able to rescue the survivors with their self-interest for beating the other players.
