The remaining humans labs must use their fantastic discoveries in Earth's final defense! Will one of the human facilities have the strength to repel the aliens or will the Earth fall? It is in your hands...

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 2.3/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
