Nemesis VS Nemesis: Retaliation VS Nemesis: Lockdown - BUY THIS, NOT THAT

Three Nemesis games, one designer, one engine but which one actually belongs on your shelf? We put Nemesis, Nemesis Lockdown, and Nemesis Retaliation head to head across gameplay mechanics, complexity, player counts, session length, and overall fun factor to help you make the right call before spending your money. We've played all three extensively and we don't fully agree, which makes this conversation worth having. From the original's brutal survival horror and spiraling noise to Lockdown's power management and corporate paranoia, to Retaliation's marines-with-agency approach and flexible objectives, each game hits differently. We break down who each one is really for, what the real play times look like, and whether owning more than one actually makes sense. Real session stories, honest deal breakers, and a clear verdict for 2025. The intro footage comes from one of our all-time favorite board game channels:    / @ontable   ⚠️ Is This AI?
