From BoardGameGeek

Kaijus From Space! is a co-operative tabletop game in which up to five players dive into the chaos and city-wide destruction of a battle between giant monsters from outer space and heroic human defenders. Players take on the role of unique kaijus, each with dynamic skills and support moves that evolve throughout the game, becoming increasingly more powerful and bizarre. As kaijus take damage, they grow angrier and stronger, shifting between three different forms that provide different advantages and dangers. However, the human armies defending the city will fight back with a variety of countermeasures, ranging from unpredictable event cards to robotic champions and towering mechas, ready to face the monsters head-on. Players have to work together and act in synergy with their teammates to neutralize the defenses, damage the infrastructure, and earn enough destruction tokens to win the game. Inspired by Japanese monster movies of the 1970s and 1980s, Kaijus From Space! mixes playful humor and a moderate level of complexity with gameplay that aims to strike a balance between accessibility and strategic depth. Pairing the social fun of a party game with mechanisms that reward planning and shared tactics, it focuses on physical interactions between players, whose real-world actions can affect the game and vice versa. Stomp through the city and wreak havoc, taking advantage of overpowered moves and obvious plot holes. Knock down that pathetic skyscraper, and crush the puny humans! -description from the designer
