Sole Survivor pnp solo alien boardgame preview

About Sole Survivor, from BoardGameGeek:

Sole Survivor is an alien-infested spaceship solo survival challenge. It's a print-and-play and rather lightweight affair: matches are brutal and short, much like life itself. This is a solo survival card game where the player must explore the scenario, collect three loot tokens, and survive against hostile Xeno creatures. Each turn the player rolls a die to determine how many actions they can perform, such as moving across the map or playing loot cards. However, rolling a 1 makes noise and immediately triggers the Xeno turn. During the Xeno phase, enemy behavior is determined by the Xeno movement system. The Xenos move along the shortest path toward the player and attack if they reach them. Different types of Xenos have unique abilities and attack patterns, forcing the player to carefully manage positioning and resources. Loot cards provide temporary advantages, defensive tools, or special abilities that can break normal rules and help the player survive. Across three scenarios the difficulty increases as Xenos become more aggressive. In the final scenario, a Boss enters the map and relentlessly hunts the player. To win, the player must collect all the loot tokens and survive all scenarios without being killed by the Xenos or the Boss. -description from the designer
