***IMPORTANT!*** This Feature Film box is not playable by itself and requires you to also own the Core Box.

Van Ryder Games Overview
You won’t know who you can trust when playing against The Organism. How can you fight what you can’t see? You’ll have to test the victims in the lab or with test kits you find to determine if they’ve been assimilated. Of course, your real job is to kill mutated victims to stop the panic! Featuring three different types of organisms, you’ll never know what you are going to face.

The arctic Station 2891 features new unique challenges. Anyone who stays outside too long risks succumbing to frostbite, but the only escape is via the helicopter traveling to and from the station from the Arctic airport. Will you try to save your comrades against all odds, or look out for numero uno and use them to buy yourself time?

Horror Movie Classification

Alien Impostor / Isolation Horror

The primary movie connection is overwhelmingly John Carpenter's The Thing (1982).

An isolated research station surrounded by frozen wilderness, an extraterrestrial organism capable of imitating humans, and a group of survivors who cannot be certain who is still human are the defining ingredients of Carpenter's film.

Even the title contains a nice little wink. The Thing takes place at U.S. Outpost 31, while Final Girl sends us to Station 2891—another numbered research facility that you probably shouldn't accept a job at.

Most importantly, Panic at Station 2891 captures the paranoia that makes The Thing special. Identifying the monster can be just as important as surviving it.

Closest Movie Comparison: The Thing (1982)

Secondary Movie Comparison: The Thing from Another World (1951), the earlier adaptation of John W. Campbell's story that also inspired Carpenter's film.
