The final exam is going to be rough, but it’ll be worth it, if you manage to rise above your fellow students and win the title of Master Alchemist!
Chemical Overload BASE is a Deck Building, Tableau Building game set with an Alchemy theme. In the game, players compete to create various potions with unique effects. At the end of the final exam, you’ll be judged on the quality of your potions, which can be measured by how many Alchemy Points you’ve managed to accrue. Do this before the lab fills up with too many toxic fumes and the exam is called to a halt. The alchemist with the most Alchemy Points wins!
As a bit of a twist on a classic deck building game, when a player gains new cards, such as new chemicals or a newly brewed deck potion, those cards go right on top of their draw pile. Any flasks or table potions gained can be placed immediately in the players tableau area. Players will be able to decide what unused cards in their hand they want to keep at the end of the round and which they want to discard, all with an eye on the cards they know they’ll be drawing next turn.
