The Ghostbusters’ latest invention is nearly ready, but there’s trouble brewing! The space pirate Zorg has crashed his ship into the Ghostbusters’ headquarters, stealing psychokinetic energy and transforming his crew into deadly Ecto-Terrestrials.
By themselves, the Ghostbusters stand no chance against these invaders… but hope is not lost! The Men In Black have joined forces with them to repel the new threat!
1 to 4 players each control a team of one Ghostbuster and one MIB agent to defend New York City. Trap Ecto-Terrestrials and complete scenarios while using the latest weaponry & gadgets! All teams must work together to defeat the alien forces, but only one team can be the best. Do you have the mettle to defeat the machinations of Zorg and his minions?
As players bust Ecto-Terrestrials and complete objectives, hot sheet cards will be drawn. Hot sheets will always contain a game-altering event and an Ecto-Terrestrial icon. Each time an Ecto-Terrestrial icon is revealed, a corresponding track is filled. If any of the tracks become full, a ship piece must be removed from the firehouse. A multi-chamber dice tower, the firehouse has been riddled with ship pieces from the Ecto-Terrestrial’s crash landing. When a piece is pulled, any number of dice might spill out, indicating how many Ecto-Terrestrials and of which type will spawn around the map.

These were available if you pre-ordered the game on BackerKit before April 3, 2021. We don’t know if any of these will be made available in the future for non-backerkit orders. It is possible that there could be an expansion pack, but that’s just a wild guess based on the fact that many board games these days have additional content you can purchase.
