How it plays

Compete to earn the most victory points through faction influence, battles, alliances, and scientific research. On your turn, play a card to place an agent and take an action, or reveal remaining cards to gain resources, buy cards, and support conflicts; Immortality adds specimens, grafted cards, and a research track. The game ends after ten rounds or when someone reaches 10 points, and the highest score wins.

Main mechanics

  • Deck / bag building

  • Hand management: Timing which card to spend is the core puzzle.
  • Deck / bag building: You shape your own deck or bag of resources as you play.
