About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're into the vibe of 'The Others: 7 Sins' and want to spice up your games, the Gamma Team expansion is just what you need! This little gem introduces five new heroes for players to take turns controlling: a Leader, a Bruiser (the one who smashes through everything), a Sniper (for long-range precision), and two Fixers (who sort things out). Each with their own unique tricks and powers, naturally! To make things even more interesting, you get 12 new Upgrade cards to shuffle into your inventory deck. Think of things like 'Inner Peace' training to reset Corruption or a 'Bionic Arm' that grants you an extra die for Fight and Skill rolls. Oh, and let's not forget the 3 extra Hero Dice, perfect for boosting those crucial rolls. To top it all off, there are 5 new map tiles to vary the scenario and increase replayability. It's the perfect recipe for anyone seeking more variety and new strategies to fight the forces of evil. Get ready to face the horror with an even more powerful team!
