Space Cadets: Resistance Is Mostly Futile

This expansion adds new missions, map hazards, and enemy types to the base cooperative starship game, including scenarios designed for two players as well as larger crews. Players encounter parasites, a damaged space station, and a multi-tentacled attacker that behaves differently from previous foes, changing tactical priorities during play. A new Science Officer role joins the bridge with inventive gadgets that can aid the team but may have unpredictable effects on the ship’s systems. Gameplay remains focused on real-time coordination, station management, and emergency repairs as crews respond to lasers, tentacles, and mission-specific obstacles.
