The Captain Is Dead review

The Captain Is Dead is a cooperative game where you and your fellow crew members must work together to save a starship from an alien attack. It's a thrilling game with a fun, light-hearted sci-fi theme that really makes you feel like you're in a Star Trek episode (without violating any copyright, of course!). The game itself is surprisingly simple to learn, but it's difficult to master. Each player takes on a different role with unique abilities, and you'll need to work together to use those abilities to your advantage. The game is full of suspense, and you'll need to be on your toes to keep the ship from being destroyed. I really enjoy the different characters and the replayability of the game. Each time you play, you can pick different characters and try new strategies. It's not a game for everyone, as it can be quite challenging. If you're not used to cooperative games, you might find yourself getting frustrated. However, if you're looking for a game that's fun, challenging, and full of suspense, The Captain is Dead is definitely worth checking out.
