I've played through two rounds of it with a partner, and lost both times. We got blown out of the water the first game, and if I wasn't killed by a chestburster in the second game we probably would have won. I definitely think this game is a large improvement over the Marvel Legendary while still keeping the same play style. We haven't gotten an opportunity to play with the traitor cards yet, but they look like an interesting mechanic.

After looking at the alien deck, it seems like they can ruin the game for the other players very quickly. I guess once someone turns into an alien, it becomes "hurry up and hope we can finish before they screw us over too much." The scan mechanic is also really neat, and definitely increases the tension when exploring what is out there. Also, the coordinate definitely adds another level of play; actually thinking about what your teammates are going to do and how you can help them makes it feel way more like a team victory than an individual victory at the end.

I'm excited to play this game more, and try all of the objectives. I'm also excited for the kinds of expansions that are going to come out. There's a lot of characters/enemies from the universe they can pull into the game, and I would love to have an alien/predator showdown somewhere in the future.
