"The Alters: Last Variable" Expansion Loses the Base Game's Best Tension

The new "Last Variable" expansion for "The Alters" drops the base game's defining mechanic — a deadly sun forcing players to constantly flee — resulting in a far hollower experience. The ever-present countdown that gave the original its tension and meaning is entirely absent. Exploring new versions of Jan and unravelling the expansion's mystery still offer enjoyment, but the stakes feel significantly lower.
