About the game
SciFi Mission Medium Zombicide: Invader Mission M8 – Locked Out is a challenging scenario requiring survivors to rescue scientists trapped behind special doors by using damage 2+ weapons to breach them, while navigating dark zones. The main goals are to find all objectives (including scientists) and escape, with the added difficulty of managing Xeno spawns in dark corridors. Oh, great. We're locked out. The doors that lead to the safe zone can only be opened by a modified bot with the encryption codes. But there are just so many of them!
