About the game
Hey everyone! Ready to head back into the dark? In Sub Terra: Extraction, we're no longer alone in the cave. A new threat, the Leaper, has emerged and it's faster and deadlier than ever, hunting us relentlessly. To make matters worse, the mission now is not just to survive, but to return to the surface with proof of the infestation. To handle this predicament, we have the Mercenary, a new character who blends the caution of an explorer with the strength of a defender. They are key to dealing with these monsters that appear out of nowhere. Extraction brings more dangers and challenges to the base game, increasing the tension and the need for teamwork. If you enjoy cooperative games where every decision counts and luck can turn the tide, this expansion will keep you glued to your seat. Prepare yourselves, because the escape is going to be sinister!
