Bios Genesis Second Edition (Scripted)

Bios Genesis by Phil Eklund. Description: One to four players start as organic compounds shortly after Earth's formation, represented by up to three Biont tokens. The Amino Acids command Metabolism, the lipids create cells, the pigments control energy absorption and storage, and the nucleic acids control templated replication. Their goal is a double origin of life: first as Autocatalytic Life (a metabolic cycle reproducing, yet not replicating, its own constituents), and the second as Darwinian Life (an Organism using a template to replicate in an RNA world). Players can play cooperative, competitive, or solitaire. The February 2018 revision to the Living Rules for game are available from a tablet inside the mod. The most up-to-date rules are available here There are a series of scripts to automate shuffling and stacking the decks correctly. (Just push your selected Setup button!) Each player has a token in hidden zone for voting on Gaia /Media. Select vote, flip face down and move to play area. Reveal. Cubes, bionts, catalysts, dice, and voting tokens can be cleaned up using return tokens. Catalysts can be acquired using + buttons next to the pool.
