introduction
Nemesis: Lockdown is a semi-coopera�ve game in which
you play the role of an employee of a base on Mars overrun
by hos�le intruders from space.
To win, you must complete one of the two objec�ves that

you receive at the beginning of the game and survive in
one piece un�l the arrival of the rescue team.
Critical Gameplay
moments
During the game, there are four cri�cal gameplay
moments that are independent of the current round
and occur a�er certain condi�ons are met:
• First encounter with the Intruder.
• Death of the first character.
• Unlocking the isola�on room.
• Flip the autodestruc�on token red side up.
When you experience your first cri�cal gameplay

moment, you must immediately choose 1 of 2
objec�ve cards to complete.
4
The First encounter:
When the first intruder figure (of any type) appears on
the board, each player immediately chooses 1 of the 2
objec�ve cards. Unselected cards are removed from
the game without revealing their contents. The game
goes on.
Alterna�vely, the above rule should only apply to players who
are playing their first encounter, and enforced selec�on of
objec�ve card shoulf apply to all players at next, subsequent
cri�cal moment.
Death of the first character:

The system immediately opens the main gate so that
the rest of the characters can leave the base.
unlocking isolation room:

When the �me token reaches the first white space
(“08”) on the �me track, the isola�on room is
unlocked. The isola�on room can be unlocked earlier
by ac�va�ng the alert procedure.
Autodestruction:
When the autodestruc�on token is flipped red side up,
the system immediately opens the main gate to allow
other characters to leave the base and blocks the
ability to cancel the autodestruc�on sequence.

21
Basic Actions
Regardless of the combat:
MOVEMENT :
Pay the cost by discarding one of the available ac�on
cards and move your character down the corridor to
an adjacent loca�on.
1 If you are going to an unexplored loca�on, turn
the explora�on and room �les over and resolve
the effects:
• There is a “silence” symbol on the �le :

You don't roll for noises. If you have a slime
marker, consider this result as "danger".
• There is a “danger” symbol on the �le :
If the intruder is not engaged in combat and is in an
adjacent loca�on, move him to your loca�on.
Otherwise, put noises in all corridors leading to the
current loca�on.
• There is any other symbol on the �le:
Roll for noises and resolve the result.
(If you need to add a noise marker to a corridor that already
has a noise marker, resolve the encounter)
22
2 If you are going to a revealed, empty loca�on, roll
for noises.
3 If you are going to a revealed loca�on that is

currently occupied by another character or
intruder, ignore the roll for noises.
out of Combat:
CAREFUL MOVEMENT :
Pay the cost by discarding two of the available ac�on
cards and move your character down the corridor to
an adjacent loca�on. If you must resolve noises,
instead of rolling for noises, place a noise marker on
any unoccupied corridor leading to that loca�on.
The game does not have a rule for when a player wants to
perform this ac�on, but cannot, because all the corridors
leading to the des�na�on loca�on are already occupied by
noise markers. Alternately, ignore the rule of adding noises if
that's not possible.
23
Resolving Special Effects:
Resolve the effect of the explora�on token and return it to
the box.
Place a door token in the corridor you used to
enter this room.
You are covered in slime. Place a status marker on
your board.
Place a Malfunc�on marker in this room.
Place a fire marker in this room.
Draw and resolve 1 card from the deck of Mars

surface cards. A�er resolving a card effect, make a
roll for noises (or place a Noise Marker) as usual.
Draw 1 card from the green item deck.
Draw 1 card from the yellow item deck.
Draw 1 card from the red Item deck.
24
mars surface:
Surface-located rooms have different corridor markers to

indicate to players that the mars surface dice should be
rolled instead of the standard die when rolling for noise. In
addi�on, the area surrounding the building should be
treated as a technical corridor.
Mars surface cards:

iznacznikśluzu.
Otrzymujesz

If an explora�on token or die roll shows a mars surface

symbol, resolve one Mars surface card.
A ) Event considered by
everyone on the surface without
protec�on.
B ) Event considered by
everyone on the surface in
buildings and spacesuits.
25
LIFT A HEAVY OBJECT :
cards and pick up one heavy object in the room you
are currently in.
TRADE :
Pay the cost by discarding one of the available Ac�on
cards and ini�ate a trade. All players (even those who
passed) in the same room with you can exchange any
number of items and objects to each other.
CRAFT AN ITEM :
cards. Then, as an ac�on, discard items (cra�ing
ingredients) and draw a cra�ed item from the DIY
deck.
DROPING ITEMS AND OBJECTS :
You can do this at any �me during your turn without
using any ac�on.
Objects remain in the room where they were
dropped.
Items are lost and their cards are returned to the
bo�om of their respec�ve decks.
This is an illogical rule. Alterna�vely, all heavy items
should be treated in the same way as heavy objects.
26
Resolving encounters:
An encounter occurs whenever an intruder appears in the
room where the character is.
These encounters can be followed by resolving explora�on
noises, event cards, and intruders’ bag effects.
The enconter with the intruder proceeds as follows:
1 Draw one token from the Intruders’ Bag.
2a If the drawn �le is empty, return it to the bag and add noise
markers in each corridor leading to the room where the
encounter took place. Finish resolving the encounter.
2b If the �le drawn is anything else, discard all Noise tokens from
all corridors leading to the room you are in.
3 Place an intruder figure in the room that matches the symbol
on the �le.
4 Compare the number on the �le with the number of cards you
have in your hand.
• If your character is in a sector with an ac�ve power,
resolve the lower value (blue).
• If your character is in darkness, resolve the higher value
(red).
5 If the token's value is greater than the number of cards in your
hand, resolve a surprise a�ack.
6 Discard the drawn �le, it does not return to the Intruders’ Bag.
27
Intruder ATTACKS:
(Sneak A�ack; A�ack during the Event Phase; Character Escape)
1 Larva - Draw no Intruder A�ack cards.

Instead, follow these steps:
• Remove the figure from the board, if you don't
have a larva on your character board, put it
there.
• Draw a contamina�on card.

Each character has their own deck of 10 ac�on cards. The

decks of individual characters are par�ally different from
each other. Possible ac�ons are described in detail in the
text of the card.
To perform a card ac�on, you must discard the card from
your hand and pay the cost listed on the card.
A ) Condi�onal symbol indica�ng when a player can play a
given ac�on card ("In Combat" / "Out of Combat").
B ) The addi�onal cost that the player must pay by
discarding addi�onal cards from the available ac�on
cards to perform and resolve the described ac�on.
C ) Ac�on descrip�on.
D ) Component symbol. It is part of the required materials
for cra�ing items from the DIY deck.
E ) Condi�onal informa�on. It must be resolved when
performing the ac�on on the equipment card.
33
Event Phase:
Each round consists of two consecutive phases, the player
phase and the event phase.
PASS:
When a player passes, he may discard any number of cards
from his hand. Passing counts as an action taken on a player's
turn.
This is a problematic rule, not fully balanced and unnecessarily prolongs
the game. Passing should be treated the same as "dropping" and should
be free and independent of the actions performed.
Once all players with Pass resolve the Event Phase:

1 If the CSS capsule token is under the �me token,
flip it over and resolve the effect.
2 Move the �me token one space to the right. Check
power thresholds and consider any effects.
3 Remove noise markers in powered sectors in all
corridors that do not lead to character rooms.
Not quite a well-chosen and logical step. Alterna�vely,
in addi�on, the lead player may remove a single noise marker,
ignoring the rule of powered sectors.
4 Each intruder in the same room with the character

performs an a�ack.
5 Consider the effects of the fires. Each intruder in the
room with the fire marker takes 1 damage.
34
RESolving event cards:
6 Draw and resolve one event card:

track of the intruder lab board.
41
Chytrids
Changes in preparation:
The add-on is compa�ble with the base side of the board.
The game with this add-on is played according to the
standard rules with the following changes.
1 Instead of using the cards from the base game,
prepare the appropriate cards from the Chytrids
expansion.
2 Next to the main board, place the queen board,
and on it, place the queen figure and s�nkhorn
figures in the appropriate spaces (the queen figure
should stand in the middle, and the s�nkhorn figures
around it).
3 Put all the tokens into the Chytrids’ Bag.
Changes in exploration:
1 Addi�onal step. Place a spore marker in an adjacent
room whose corridor has the same number as the
number on the explora�on �le.
2 Extra ac�on. If you reveal a nest room, place a
mycelium marker in it.
Changes in Larva mechanics:

The mechanics of the larva were taken over by the spores.
When you are about to place a larva figure on your
character board, you must place a spore marker instead.
If there is a spore marker on your character board and you must
place another spore marker on it, your character dies. Place a
germinator and a character corpse token in the room where you
died.
42
Growth and
evolution of spores:
Spore Level 1 Germinator Level 3 Germinator Mycelium
There can only be one marker in each room.

Spore markers are placed in rooms as a result of certain
ac�ons or game effects, such as Explora�on or the Event
Phase.
When the spore is to be spread through a corridor with a
closed door, nothing happens and the door is destroyed.
If you are to place a spore marker in a room with a spore,
replace it with a germinator instead. If this is not possible,
place a mycelium marker instead.
If you are about to place a second germinator, nothing
happens.
Germinator markers will evolve from level one to level
three. If the germinator marker is already at level 3 and
you would need to evolve it to another level, replace it
with a Mycelium marker instead.
Markers in rooms do not affect characters in any way.
Mycelium:
An excessive number of rooms infested with
mycelium can lead to premature destruc�on of the
base and the death of players.
43
Destroying germinators:
The germinator is not treated as an Intruder for the
purposes of Item and Ac�on cards.
You can perform a shoot or melee ac�on to deal damage
to a germinator. Each damage (regardless of source)
inflicted on a germinator lowers its level by 1.
If its level drops to zero, remove it back to the lab board.
If you perform a melee ac�on and miss, you do not suffer a deep
wound.
Additional fire effects:

In addi�on to the standard rules:
1 If there is also a spore marker in the room, remove it.
2 If there is also a germinator marker in the room, deal
one damage to it.
Resolving
Event cards of chytrids:
All germinator markers and mycelium markers on
the board spread spores through the appropriate
corridors.
All germinator markers of the corresponding color
on the main board expand. If there are 2 icons on
an event card, all germinator markers of these
colors expand twice.
Before you move a deathcap or queen, check to see
if there are any germinator or mycelium markers in
the room. If so, it moves. If not, place a spore
marker.
44
Encounters with chytrids:
If you draw a s�nkhorn token and there are no more
figures on the queen board. Instead, all s�nkhorns not
engaged in combat returns to the queen board.
Before placing a deathcap or queen, check if there are any

germinators or mycelium markers in the room. If so, it
appears and you must resolve the encounter. If not, place
a germinator marker.
Resolving
Health pool of chytrids:
Germinator: Health points equal to the level of the

germinator.
S�nkhorn: Health points equal to the blood point
value on 1 chytrids a�ack card.
Deathcap: Health points equal to the sum of the blood
points on the 2 chytrids a�ack cards.
Health points equal to the sum of the blood
Queen: points on 1 grapple a�ack card and the
lowest visible number on the queen board.
If the health points are equal to or less than the current
damage, the chytrid is killed - remove its figure and place
1 corpse token in the room where it died.
45
Resolving
Chytrids’ bag:
During the Event Phase, draw one token from the Chytrids’
bag.
engaged in combat.

engaged in combat.

If the queen is on the main board, place a
germinator marker in adjacent rooms.
If the queen is not on the main board, the le�most
germinator on the lab board raises the level by 1. If
the germinator is already at level 3, resolve the
next one in order.
Return all tokens back to the intruders’ bag.
If possible, return the killed s�nkhorn to the queen
board.
Killing the queen:

When the queen dies, from now on, whenever you draw a
queen token during an encounter or while resolving a
Chytrids’ bag, resolve the following effect.
The le�most germinator on the lab board raises the level
by 1. If the germinator is already level 3, resolve the next
one in order.
46
void seeders
Changes in preparation:
prepare the appropriate cards from the Void Seeders
expansion.
2 Remove the contaminated room from the pool of
rooms "II".
3 Remove 2 each of the "slime" and "silence"
underground explora�on tokens. Add 3 "lair"
underground explora�on tokens to the explora�on
token pool. Place one on each room �le and in each
elevator room.
4 Remove the void seeders weakness cards "Solid
Bulkheads" and "Wave of Calm" from the game.
5 Put the following tokens into the void seeder
intruders’ bag:
• Empty token x1
• Random chips x2 + x1 for each player
• Insanity tokens = x1 for each player
6 Each player receives an insanity track card, cover larva
and slime spaces on each character board. Then place
a status marker on the "1" space.
Mars surface:
Paths should be treated as corridors for traffic only. If any
game effect (such as the Panic Card "Insane Courage" or
the "Whispers" event card) affects a character at an
intersec�on, ignore the corridor rules.
47
Insanity mechanic:
5 In the void seeders expansion, characters
4
can go insane, which is indicated by a status
3
2
marker on the Insanity track card. Players
1
will also draw panic cards at appropriate
�mes during the game.
Insanity level:
The track reflects the character's level of insanity. When
an encounter with an intruder occurs, the type of void
seeder that appears depends on the insanity level of the
character who triggered the encounter. When a character
with level 5 insanity is about to increase his level of
insanity, he dies.
Panic cards:
When you draw a panic card and your character's insanity
level is lower than the value on the panic card, or the
card's effect cannot be resolved, increase your insanity
level by one. Otherwise, resolve the panic card effect.
The effect of a panic card can be canceled by another player if he
plays an "interrup�on" card!
Changes in item cards:

1 ”Neutralizer” - Instead of removing the larva, reduce
insanity level to 3.
Changes in lab room:

You can test a character's insanity level, there must be at
least 1 character with insanity level 3 or higher in the
Laboratory.
48
Changes in resting:
When you perform the "Rest", "Rushed Analysis" ac�ons,
or the Decon room ac�on, you can:
1 Lower your character's insanity level by 1 or
2 Scan the contamina�on cards.
If the Contamina�on cards are INFECTED while scanning, increase
your character's insanity to 5!
Changes in corpses:
Void seeders do not die or leave a corpse token, so they
are not affected by the xerobiologist's "Robo�c Arm" card.
However, you can use the effect of this card to take a
corpse token from a destroyed lair.
Changes in slimes:
Slime does not appear in the void seeders expansion.
Ignore all slime marker rules.
The void seeders expansion is not fully compa�ble with the
alternate side of the board, the Mars surface. Many of the
elements relate to the "slime" mechanic and the "space suit"
protec�on mechanic. Ignoring the slime is problema�c and
unbalanced.
Alterna�vely, the "slime" mechanic should be treated as

"insanity". Resolve a panic card
49
Encountering void seeders:
Check the insanity level of the character who triggered the
encounter. Place the intruder figure in the room that
matches the symbol on the insanity track. Resolve the
encounter. Set the drawn void seeder token aside.
Place a noise marker in each corridor leading to the room

you are in. The character that triggered the encounter
resolves the panic card. Return the drawn character
insanity token to the bag.
The color of the insanity token is irrelevant!
Place a noise marker in each corridor leading to the room

you are in. Return the drawn empty insanity token to the
bag.
LAIRS:
Lairs share many characteris�cs with void seeders, but
unlike them, they have a material form. They appear in
the game a�er explora�on tokens are revealed.
When exploring or moving to a room containing a lair,
you do not roll for noise.
Lairs, like fire markers, have their effect at the end of a
player's turn. When a character ends his turn (each of his
turns) in a room with a lair, he rolls for noises.
50
Resolving
Health pool of void seeders:
Lurker: Draw 2 void seeder a�ack cards. health

points are equal to the lower value of
blood points.
Whisperer: Health points equal to the blood point
value on 1 void seeder A�ack card.
Stalker: Draw 2 void seeder a�ack cards. health
points are equal to the greater value of
blood points.
Despoiler: The only way to kill the despoiler is to
destroy all lairs in the game. If this
happens, remove the desoiler figure
from the game.
Lairs: Draw 2 void seeder a�ack cards. health
points are equal to the greater value of
blood points. If any card has a retreat
icon, the lair takes no damage.
If there is a retreat symbol on the drawn card(s), the void
seeder escapes.
If the health points are equal to or less than the current
amount of damage, the void seeder is killed - remove its
figure.
Only the lair leaves a corpse behind!
51
Resolving
void seeders’ bag:
During the Event Phase, draw one token from the void
seeder intruders’ bag.
Put the drawn token back to the intruders’ bag.
engaged in combat.

The character matching the color of the insanity
token resolves the panic card.

Add a random void seeder token to the bag if
possible.
Lurking:
In all rooms that contain a non-combat void seeder and
that are not adjacent to other character rooms:
1 Place noise markers in all corridors leading to the void
seeder room. Ignore corridors that already have a noise
marker.
2 Remove the void seeder figure from the board and
add a random void seeder token to the intruders’ bag.
void seeders’ movement:

Remember that void seeders do not have a physical form.
They ignore all obstacles while moving (ignore closed
doors).
52
Performing final scan:
1 Scan all Contamina�on Cards, raise your Insanity
Level to MAX Level 5 for each.
2 If you have insanity level at level 5. Draw 4 in your
hand. If you drew a Contamina�on card, you lose.
53
carnomorphs
Changes in preparations:
prepare the appropriate cards from the Carnomorphs
expansion.
2 Place the Carno Lab board next to the main board.

Place the following in the appropriate boxes:
• 8 egg tokens on the nest space,
• 3 random facedown carno adapta�on cards.
• Prepare 1 shambler, fleshbeast and butcher
figures each, and then place them on the
appropriate Adapta�on cards.
3 Put the following tokens into the carnomorph
intruders’ bag:
• Empty token x1
• Blue metagorger tokens x2
• Red metagorger tokens x2
+ x1 for each player.
4 Place the character corpse token in the alert
room.
54
Mutation mechanics:
In the Carnomorphs expansion, characters can mutate.
When this happens, the player draws a character
muta�on card and places a muta�on marker on his
character board.
Muta�on markers are ammo/damage markers from the
base game. When you are about to receive a muta�on
marker:
A ) If you don't have a muta�on card, draw two and
choose one of them.
B ) If you have muta�on cards, place a muta�on marker.
If you get a fourth muta�on marker, your character dies.
Changes during scanning:

If the Contamina�on cards are INFECTED while scanning,
place a Muta�on marker on your Character board instead
of a Larva figure.
Mutation actions:
To perform a muta�on ac�on, you must scan a chosen
contamina�on card from your hand and place 1 muta�on
marker on your character board (regardless of the scan
result). Depending on the scan result:
A ) If the Contamina�on card is INFECTED, you set it aside
discard pile and resolve an ac�on card effect.
B ) If the Contamina�on card is not INFECTED, discard it
and draw a new Contamina�on card, return it to your
discard pile cards and resolve the effect of the ac�on card.
55
Encountering carnomorphs:
Place a noise marker in each corridor leading to the room.
If the empty token was the last token in the intruders’

bag, add 1 metagorger token to the intruders’ bag. Then
put the empty token back into the bag.
When you are about to add a metagorger token to a

carnomorph intruders’ bag, always add a red
metagorger token (if available) instead of a blue one.
Metagorger attack:
A character a�acked by a metagorger does not draw or
resolve a carnomorph a�ack card. Instead of this:
A ) If you don't have a Muta�on card, draw 1 Character
Muta�on card, 1 Contamina�on card, and 1
Superficial Wound. Then, add a shambler token to
the carnomorph intruders’ bag and remove the
metagorger figure from the room.
B ) If you have a Character Muta�on card, he only gets 1
Contamina�on card and 1 Superficial Wound. Add a
shambler token to the carnomorph intruders’ bag.
butcher:
An excep�onally large carnomorph specimen. The
butcher does not fit into the entrance to the technical
corridors. If it has to move towards the technical corridors,
it stays in the room.
56
Carnomorph adaptations:
Carnomorph Adapta�on cards replace Intruder Weakness
cards. Thanks to them, carnomorphs become stronger
and stronger.
The knowledge gained by the characters does not affect
the carnomorphs in any way, as is the case with the
intruders.
Players can use the Laboratory room ac�on to research
one object, which increases their character's knowledge
level by 3 and addi�onally removes the revealed
adapta�on card from the game.
Resolving
Health pool of carnomorphs:
When a carnomorph is damaged, draw 1 carnomorph
a�ack card and check the damage effect. There are 2
values on the card – the upper one is for the metagorger
and the lower one is for the other types of carnomorphs
represented by symbols.
If the number in the blood symbol is equal to or less than
the carnomorph's current damage, the carnomorph is
killed. However, carnomorphs don't die that easily:
Metagorger: Remove figure, place corpse marker.
Shambler: Remove figure, place corpse marker.
Fleshbeast: Remove the figure, place a corpse
marker and a shambler figure.
Butcher: Remove figure, place two shambler
figures. The Butcher will no longer be
in the game. Put it back in the box.
57
Feeding:
When a carnomorph not involved in combat is in a room
with a heavy object or metagorger, it begins to feed. The
order of feeding runs from the highest evolu�on to the
lowest:
1 Remove that Carnomorph's damage.
2 Replace the figure with a figure with a higher
development level.
3 Remove the heavy object or metagorger from the
board that the carnomorph was feeding on.
Repeat these steps for all carnomorphs that meet the
above condi�ons.
Order of feeding on objects and metagorgers: red body crew
member, intruder egg, intruder corpse, metagorger, blue body
crew member.
58
Resolving
Carnomorphs’ bag:
During the event phase, draw one token from the Carnomorph
intruders’ bag.
Remove this token from the bag and add 1 metagorger
token to the intruders’ bag. Everyone rolls for noises,
except for characters engaged in combat.
Place a metagorger figure in every room that has a
metagorger or heavy object.
If the nest has been revealed and is not destroyed, place

a metagorger in it.
Everyone rolls for noises, except for characters engaged
in combat.
Everyone rolls for noises, except for characters engaged
in combat.
Remove the drawn token. Place a butcher figure in a
room with a character who:
1 a Has a slime marker;

1 b Has the fewest cards in hand;
1 C Is the earliest in play order.
2 First player.
Resolve the encounter.

Put the drawn token back to the intruders’ bag. Remove
all shambling figures not engaged in combat. Add the
removed shambler tokens and one metagorger token to
the intruders’ bag. Everyone rolls for noises, except for
characters engaged in combat.
59
Mars surface:
Any effect that men�ons tech corridors in their content
can't be applied to areas, so the rule that the butcher
doesn't move through tech corridors doesn't apply to
areas. If the butcher is to move to the area, remove his
figure from the board and add the butcher token to the
carnomorph intruders’ bag.
Performing final scan:

1 If you have a muta�on card, go to step 4.
2 If not, scan all contamina�on cards.
3 If any are INFECTED, draw a muta�on card.
4 If you have a muta�on card, shuffle the cards.
Draw 4 in your hand. For each contamina�on card,
draw a muta�on marker. If you have four muta�on
markers or more, you lose.
60
Purge
Intruduction:
Nemesis: Purge is an unofficial mini-expansion, It works as
an extension of the "Alert Procedure" mechanic.
When the �me token leaves the alert procedure token
space, instead of checking the win condi�ons, place the
squad token in exit room 001* and con�nue the game.
Leave the alert procedure token on the �me track. The
alert procedure cannot be reac�vated.
The alert procedure does not open the main gate.
squad:
Use the "Squad" token provided with Nemesis: SG related
(Untold Stories #3).
The squad is invulnerable to any damage and cannot be
removed except by a control vent ac�on.
movement:
During the event phase, when resolving an event card,
a�er the intruder's movement step:
1 Move the squad for a number equal to the sum of
the numbers on the event card.
2 The squad moves towards the nearest Character.
3 The squad always moves along the corridor with the
lowest value.
The unit never adds or removes noise markers.
Obstacles (doors, intruders) reduce the value of movement by 1.
61
attacks:
At any �me, if the character and/or the intruder are in the
same room as the squad:
Kill all characters and intruders in this room.
The process is automa�c and instant.
Mars surface:
The squad starts at the crossroads in front of the bunker.
In the event of a distans �e, the squad always moves
towards the area with the lowest value.
The Rover is able to pass through the Squad.
