fun game with potential, but right now it feels less about the aliens and research then it does another gas station sim with very very little content. after about 2 hours i already forgot i was even an alien. I really hope to see the devs expand on being an alien outside of just getting a bit more research. and find some way to make the suspicion meter and research a little more interactive.
I have mixed feelings, it's very fun with friends but very difficult single-player. Automation of some sort needs to be added, self-serve gas pumps and self checkout maybe? It also gets more difficult as the game goes on, adding more gas pumps just means more customers. Good time with 4 people but 2 players is a struggle and singleplayer is impossible
