What is Fireteam Zero

In 1942, four soldiers vanished from the training program of the newly formed First Ranger Battalion, their names stricken from the roster. Chosen for their unique skills, they would fight in secret against terrifying supernatural enemies and overwhelming odds. This is their story.

Fireteam Zero is a cooperative game for up to four players who must cut a path through an endless swarm of deadly monsters in order to discover and defeat the ultimate evil behind them. Each player possesses a set of brutal combat skills that are represented by a deck of cards unique to that character. Play cards to devastate the creatures in your way, help your teammates survive the onslaught, or even reshape the tactical landscape with the proper application of explosive ordinance. The battle is fought across three maps of increasing difficulty, each one bringing more and tougher enemies than the last. Players must search for and complete mission objectives in order to progress and bring them one step closer to the final showdown.

Aiding them are two NPC Specialists, one with an uncanny ability to sense the location and nature of the supernatural energy in the area and another with an encyclopedic knowledge of the arcane. Use the Specialists wisely or risk failure no matter how many monsters you defeat.

Race against time as the creatures on the board become stronger and more cunning. The longer you take to complete your objectives, the more Monster Twist cards are revealed, each granting a new and terrible aspect to your enemy. In each set of missions you will face a different family of horrifying creatures, each with their own special abilities and twist cards.

Fireteam Zero is a magnificent survival and strategic game where every player will have to rack his/her brains in order to complete a challenging mission with the skills provided by every character deck of cards. Every mission has its own features and set up indicated in the rulebox. It has been a nice surprise considering that I hadn’t been successful when it was released in 2015 and 2017 (second wave and the Spanish version). In this game collaboration between players are crucial, in fact, every tactical decision has to be taken as a group. Another positive point is its immersion, actually,

I don't even remember what the game was about and that, for me, tells a lot about a thematic game.
