About this expansion

Thunderbirds: Above & Beyond is a board game for 1–4 players, with play lasting around 60 minutes. Released in 2016, it places International Rescue in a world where the Hood’s schemes are more deadly than ever.

To meet these heightened dangers, International Rescue must develop its skills and learn to work as a team under pressure. Every challenge tests the organization’s ability to respond effectively while its worldwide operation faces an ongoing threat.

The game centers on the connection between urgent rescues and the larger mission of saving lives. Certain rescues can help strengthen the worldwide operation, creating an important link between immediate action and the effort to protect more people.

With support for one to four players, Thunderbirds: Above & Beyond can bring a single player or a small group into the high-pressure world of International Rescue. Its focus on teamwork makes coordination a central part of the experience, whether players are facing the Hood’s schemes alone or alongside others.

Players can expect a tense struggle shaped by three key priorities:

  • Developing International Rescue’s skills
  • Working together under pressure
  • Using certain rescues to support the worldwide operation and save more human lives

For fans of the Thunderbirds setting, this game presents a focused challenge built around danger, teamwork, and the consequences of each rescue. Thunderbirds: Above & Beyond asks players to rise to the Hood’s deadlier schemes while keeping the mission of International Rescue at the forefront.
