My BGG Comment

Played with 8. Obviously the aliens won even after one vengeful (hungry) alien turned on its fellow aliens. The point of this is obviously not that it is a balanced game of hide and seek, it's just chaos. I was a human and kept drawing red cards, there was nothing I could do to prevent getting eaten. Would definitely play again in a large group. Smaller group may start to try and turn this into an actual competition and that might be less fun. Also it plays quicker than one might think even with everyone taking turns after one another!
