This expansion has you returning to the caves you barely escaped last time and searching for the three weak spots that will collapse the tunnel network below. Hopefully you can escape before that happens.

Action Phase - All players take turns to spend two action points each on the available actions which allow you to move, heal yourself or a team mate or reveal new tiles. A third action point is available to use, however, this comes with a risk, if you decide to use this bonus action point you must roll a six-sided dice at the end of your turn, roll less than four and you lose a health point.

Like caving in real-life, it’s best to head into Sub Terra with at least one other person, as the co-operation between the uniquely-skilled characters is key to escaping the tunnels. Turn-to-turn actions are simple, but varied. Characters will spend most turns drawing random facedown tiles to expand the cave system in search of the exit, which lurks somewhere in the bottom six of the 64 squares. Even on the standard difficulty, it can be a challenge to even get close to simply discovering the exit unless you’re revealing and moving onto new tiles on almost every turn – which risks running straight into hidden hazards and monsters with little chance of reaction.

Nemesis Sub-Terra is a drop tower dark ride located at Alton Towers theme park in Staffordshire, United Kingdom. The ride opened to the public on 24 March 2012. Its theme is focused on the discovery of a nest of eggs in a network of caves, an extension of the theme and concept of the park's Nemesis roller coaster that opened in 1994. Designed by Tim Pinder, this 1-6 player, medium weight game sees you, over the course of an hour, chose one of eight characters to delve deeper and deeper into the caves drawing from 66 cave tiles. Each tile will represent, either safe passage, a hazard or a monster’s lair. It’s inevitable that when most board game fans hear the words “Tile-based game” they will immediately think of the perennially popular Carcassonne, which set a very high benchmark for the genre upon its release 19 years ago. Sub Terra is another tile-based game but you won’t find quaint castles, monasteries and lush green fields here, nor will you see sunlight, so strap on your head torch and lets go spelunking as we are going on an adventure deep underground into a network of dark, unexplored caves.

Deep beneath the ground at Alton Towers Resort lived a strange being… It’s a disappointment, as Sub Terra has a great look, does a fantastic job of translating its absorbing concept to interesting gameplay and makes a strong first impression. Unfortunately, spend too much time trapped in its depths and you might end up climbing the walls.
