What is XCOM: The Board Game
Game description from the publisher:
You are humanity's last hope.
In XCOM: The Board Game, you and up to three friends assume the roles of the leaders of the elite, international organization known as XCOM. It is your job to defend humanity, quell the rising panic, and turn back the alien invasion.
Where the world's militaries have failed to stand against the alien invaders, you must succeed. To do so, you must make strategic use of the resources available to you. You must launch Interceptors to shoot down alien UFOs, assign soldiers to key missions, research alien technology, and use that technology to defend your base — all while trying to keep the world from collapsing just long enough that you can coordinate one final mission to repel the invaders for good.

What the community says about XCOM: The Board Game
It shines every time it hits the table, at least with my friends. My only complain is that I almost always have to play the role that manages the app.
Después de 5 partidas, hemos visto que es un juego que en la fase cronometrada estresa un poco, pero es lo bueno del juego, que te da unos pocos segundos para que tomes las decisiones correctas para defender la tierra, dependiendo del papel que tengas dentro de la base. Divertido, pero se necesita de dos partidas para apreciar el juego en todo su esplendor
This is the right cooperative on the FFG, good dynamic, fun, a bit of quick response, it´s what pandemic dream of be a game one day. Love the asimetric symetric roles the game have for the players, each one shall pay attention to the game and others, giving good gaming roles to each one. Very recommended the app do everything right for you.
