Nemesis is a cooperative sci-fi game where players defend Earth against alien invaders. With standard scenarios and evolving challenges, no two games are alike.
It is a Polish board game for 1-5 players, designed by Adam Kwapiński and published by Awaken Realms in 2018. The game is set in the spaceship Nemesis and includes co-operative mechanisms with other confrontational mechanisms and conflicting objectives.
To win the game, you have to complete one of the two objectives dealt to you at the start of the game and get back to Earth in one piece. You will find many obstacles on your way: swarms of Intruders (the name given to the alien organisms by the ship AI), the poor physical condition of the ship, agendas held by your fellow players, and sometimes just cruel fate.
The game received positive reviews upon its release. Dan Thuort from Ars Technica complimented its engagement, replay-ability, theme, and the player elimination mechanism.
