From BoardGameGeek
Earth is under threat by a mysterious Alien presence. Your mission is to get into the ship, learn their master plan and then escape in time to save the planet! The Alien Ship is the first escape room board game incorporating an illustrated comic book to deliver the narrative. Players will encounter obstacles as they read through the book, then gain access to tactile puzzle pieces from the game box which will allow them to find a solution. The pieces mirror the situation in the book, delivering a uniquely immersive experience. Solving each puzzle unlocks the next part of the story. "The Alien Ship" will have you yelling, "what happens next!?" at the end of every page. -description from the publisher
