Broadcast between 1965 and 1966 in England and 10 years later in France, the Thunderbirds series (Les Sentinelles de l'air) rocked a whole generation to the point of becoming cult. Today, it is Matt Leacock (Pandemic, The Forbidden Island, The Forbidden Desert) who invites you to relive the adventures of Lady Penelope's team in this cooperative game. In Thunderbirds, you and your teammates take charge of the task of International Security, a secret organization set up to operate rescue missions around the world, when all other means have failed. At the same time, your worst enemy, the diabolical criminal known only as the Hood, threatens to cause disasters with the sole purpose of exposing your secrets.
If you can muster enough courage, ingenuity, intelligence, perseverance and skill, then you will thwart The Hood's plans and win the game. But if The Hood inadvertently manages to unleash one of its catastrophes or you fail to complete one of your missions on time, then International Security will have failed and the game will be lost. Only your team spirit will allow you to thwart The Hood's terrible plans!
