## Description
Alien Uprising is a cooperative science fiction game where you and your team are stranded on a hostile planet surrounded by aliens called the Zothren. The goal is simple: survive! You can choose between two main strategies — hold off the waves of attacks until a rescue ship arrives or repair the damaged ship and escape the planet before the Zothren overwhelm you. Each player has unique abilities, and the game starts with a dice roll that determines the available actions for the turn. Options include combat, engineering, shield recharge, first aid, and reconnaissance. But beware, the dice also indicate the speed of the enemies, which can limit your actions. The game is full of tension and tough decisions, especially at higher difficulty levels. If you enjoy cooperative challenges and have a soft spot for science fiction scenarios, Alien Uprising is a great choice.
