Overview

From Cefa introduction to the game: Alerta Roja (Red Alert)is a game for secret agents from 10 to 90 years, in which from 3 to 6 players can take part. During the voyage of a merchant ship that transports barrels with radioactive waste, one of them disappears mysteriously. By satellite, this barrel is directed through the sea to a far away city. Ultimatum: In 48 hours the city will be destroyed!! The most famous secret agent must find it, using the most sophisticated equipment available. Since the barrel, being moved by computers, can transform itself into the same type of vehicle that the agent uses for his quest, the search and recovery becomes an almost impossible mission.
