Description Edit | History

Panic Station is a paranoia-driven partly cooperative game in which you control two characters in the Extermination Corps sent out by the government to investigate the presence of fiendish alien life forms.

Players need to move both their Androids and Troopers through the base, exploring and gathering equipment that will help them to complete their mission: to find and destroy the Parasite Hive hidden somewhere in the inner depths of this hell. When a player manages to get his Trooper into the Hive location and play three gas can cards to fuel his Flamethrower, he wins the game for the humans.

However, one of the players is a Host. He must keep this identity secret, infecting as many team members as possible to gain allies and prevent the humans from completing their mission. Only players who carefully watch the behavior of team members and find a good balance between cooperation and paranoia will stand a chance against the infected players and roaming parasites.

The game uses a unique exponential traitor-system and combines tactical play with a compelling psychological mindgame amongst players.

Panic Station is a game of growing paranoia in which no one can truly trust anyone. Can you maintain your sanity and destroy the source of this evil?

0 Panic Station Variant Rules by Justus
This is a player aid for folks playing this variant of the game. As with the other uploads, please feel free to take this and run with it making work for your group. Please note, that unlike the rules aid, this does not highlight My houserules in this document. It was making the text look confusing and messy and I decided it was not necessary for an abbreviated document.

10 Panic Station Comprehensive Player Aid (v2.2)
This is just a quick player aid I made to help teach the game to new players. Some of the text was used from merc007's player aids, but I had just wanted something a little more comprehensive. I recommend printing 2 player aids onto a double sided 8.5x11".
