Far out in the Antarctic, a shapeshifting alien was found frozen in the ice. Your excavation team brought it back to camp to study, but the ice has since thawed. Now, disaster wrecks your camp, and that Thing is out there somewhere. You'll need to work together, watch each others' backs, and fight for survival, but it's hard to take orders from a leader you don't trust, first aid from a vulnerable doctor, or food from a suspicious cook. Trust is a hard thing to come by when you must be wary of . . . Who Goes There?
Who Goes There? is a growing paranoia game based on the 1938 science fiction novella, Who Goes There?, written by John W. Campbell. It's a game of strategy, trust, and deception where players must work together to survive the Antarctic dangers and escape from the alien lifeform running loose in the camp.
The path players must take to achieve this is fraught with attacks, setbacks, and vulnerability. Can you survive until the final round and board the helicopter to escape? Find out in Who Goes There?
Survival
In Who Goes There?, players make up an Antarctic research team struggling for survival. Players will need to work together to build items and upgrade their characters in order to last until the final round and board the helicopter. Players must also venture outside to search for Helicopter bonuses which will help them successfully escape.
Gather food and gear to help you survive and fight off the Thing when it comes to attack. Avoid putting yourself in vulnerable situations to keep suspicion off yourself while making sure you gather enough Helicopter Bonus items to escape (Geographic Maps, Fuel, and Research Data).
Each player starts out human, but failing to prepare will leave players vulnerable to becoming infected by the Thing. The goal is to survive until the final round and board the helicopter with enough bonuses to reach the required total. But be careful not to let any infected players on board! Any infected players that make it on to the helicopter will count their bonuses against the humans' totals. If the humans fail to meet their required total with Infected players on board, the Infected players win.
