“Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps is a tense, fun, cooperative board game. Surviving is not easy, and you will need a bit of luck to make it out alive. Both the mechanics and theme are strong in this game.”

“A solidly implemented, if slightly flawed, co-op survival simulation of a timeless action movie. Downgrade to a 'Maybe' if you don't like assembling miniatures, or resent feeling compelled to buy expansions.”

“Despite a lot of character busywork - and a rulebook in desperate need of a few more rounds of editing - the core elements here are strong enough to carry the day.”

“But ultimately, there are just too many random influences on the outcome of scenarios and actions to make you feel like you have any semblance of tactical control over the chaos.”

Co-op Board Games, https://www.facebook.com/CoopBoardGames/Article

“Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps is a good cooperative survival game that could be pretty special with an updated rulebook and some extra components. The co-op deck management is awesome and there are plenty of "Wahooo!" moments, but the issues I mentioned are enough to keep me from liking it as much as other similar co-op survival games, like Resident Evil 2.”
