Imagine that you are one of the crew in your favorite science fiction TV show. Now imagine that in the last 10 minutes of the show things have gone so badly that the captain is dead and you and the surviving members of your crew have to pull together and save the day yourselves! After making some repairs, and escaping the hostile aliens attempting to destroy you, you've run into yet another issue: The Jump Core has broken down yet again, and you have been captured and impisoned. You and the crew must work together once more to escape from the alien prison.

This time, the crew must hack into the alien prison's systems, stay hidden, and avoid patrols to survive.

Each member of your crew has special abilities and skills. You need to work as a group to maximize the potential of each role. If someone tries to be a hero, you'll all die.
