SECURITY CLEARANCE: INFRARED - CLEARED FOR ALL CITIZENS

BREAKING NEWS: ALPHA COMPLEX BOARD GAME LAUNCH BENEVOLENTLY MOVED TO JANUARY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERY CITIZEN!

Attention, Citizen! While the Computer has assured us that the holiday season is perfectly normal without Paranoia: The Uncooperative Board Game, we can confirm that this much-anticipated tabletop essential is now available for pre-order from Modiphius Entertainment for £40/$50. Set to ship in January 2025, this delay has caused no frustration whatsoever, as happiness is mandatory.

For those unfamiliar with the cult classic, Paranoia: The Uncooperative Board Game takes you deep into Alpha Complex, a utopia of micromanaged chaos overseen by the all-seeing (and never-wrong) Computer. For 2-6 players, this game of sci-fi slapstick promises betrayal, laser-zapping mayhem, and a guaranteed good time—provided you survive to the end of your turn.

GAME HIGHLIGHTS:

• Take on the role of a Troubleshooter, Alpha Complex’s finest (and most disposable) citizens!

• Scheme, snitch, and sabotage your way to victory, earning promotions to the highest Clearance Level: ULTRAVIOLET.

• Beware the “helpful” gadgets issued by The Computer—weapons that double as explosives? What could go wrong?

• Modular map tiles and 195 cards ensure high replayability.

IN THE BOX:

• 30 Modular Map Tiles

• 195 Cards (packed with betrayal and questionable "missions")

• 93 Tokens

• 6 Troubleshooter standees (collect all your clones!)

• 1 Clearance Tracker (watch your friends rise, fall, and combust!)

• 1 Rulebook (don’t let your traitor tendencies show while reading).

"The Computer is your friend!"

Never forget: The Computer loves you. Trust The Computer. Do not question The Computer.

Pre-order your copy today and ensure that January 2025 starts with a bang—literally, in some cases. Stay alert, trust no one (especially your gaming group), and keep your laser handy.

The holidays may not have Paranoia this year but don’t worry, Citizen. Fun is mandatory—and starting in January, treachery will be too.

-- As an aside, i've really struggled classifying this. Is it still sci-fi? Given [looks around at 'all this'] everything that's going on, this is starting to feel a bit like Paranoia, or a day to day kafka simulator... anyway, back to the grind --

Probably computer-approved musical entertainment to while away your utility:
