"They came from beyond time, beyond reason... and they brought friends.

Strap in, Commander—this is the ultimate solo sci-fi slugfest! They Came In Threes! cranks the chaos to maximum warp. For the first time ever, three of designer Hermann Luttmann’s bizarre, brain-busting solo science fiction games are gathered in one battle-scarred box. Lead brave Galactic Marines against interdimensional horrors, titanic biomech monstrosities, and insectoid swarms that shouldn't exist—but definitely do.

This deluxe package includes:

 Invaders from Dimension X – A reality-warping solo game where your foes don’t follow logic... or sanity.
 Attack of the 50 Foot Colossi – Massive, rock-like entities stomp across a doomed world. Can you outwit their merciless programming?
 Space Vermin from Beyond – Bugs. Big ones. Hungry ones. And they're coming for your outpost in waves.
 A Slick New FAQ & Scenario Book – Includes 3 scenarios, 8 counters for Invaders from Dimension X and an FAQ for each title.

(Six D6 dice are included.)

Each game offers fast, intuitive solo play with unpredictable enemies, evolving scenarios, and that signature “what the heck just happened?” flavor. Whether you’re repelling alien warlords, dodging titanic footfalls, or holding the last line against a tide of teeth and slime, They Came In Threes! delivers old-school thrills in glorious technicolor terror. Three games. One box. Unlimited weirdness."
