Nemesis: Retaliation is the third installment of the Nemesis horror board game series. Like the first two, it is designed as a standalone game. This time, players take on the roles of highly trained marines, entering the alien nest with strict orders and the most advanced tools available. But will they be well-prepared enough to face the unrelenting horde that awaits them?

In Nemesis: Retaliation, players must survive against overwhelming odds and the possibility of betrayal at every step. New mechanics include a reworked health system, new character actions, a modular map system with special exploration cards, an item management track, and individual objectives that allow for hidden traitors.

Gameplay Overview
Nemesis: Retaliation is the third standalone entry in the acclaimed sci-fi horror board game series, and it leans hard into the franchise's signature combination of cooperative survival and hidden betrayal. This time players are elite marines — not hapless crew members — storming an alien nest with advanced equipment and strict orders, which gives the game a more aggressive, proactive feel compared to its predecessors while keeping the dread factor firmly intact. The modular map system with exploration cards ensures no two missions unfold the same way, while the reworked health system and item management track add new layers of tactical decision-making. Individual objective cards introduce the hidden traitor tension the series is known for: everyone is working toward a common goal, but some players may have secret agendas that put them at odds with the team at the worst possible moment.
