DESCRIPTION
This game is based on the John Carpenter movie and casts each player as Snake Plissken, an ex-con sent on a rescue mission into a giant prison once known as New York City. Players will find that they can mirror many scenes of the movie as they encounter such characters as Slag, Brain, Cabbie, Maggie, the Duke, and Romero with the opportunity to gain them as allies.
Players begin with weapons and equipment cards used to help fight enemies and find clues. Cards can be lost in fights or gained at landmark spaces. Turn in matching clue cards at the corresponding location to rescue the president or his important tape. To escape, you still need to find a glider or a map to the mine fields.
