Each player plays a mad scientist, but, of course, there is only room for one. The game is one part Engine Building, Set Collection, and Area Control. It is up to you, as the maddest scientist, to use your laboratory, robots, and trusty assistant Igor to gather the resources and inventions you need in order to build your death ray and incapacitate the others before they incapacitate you. Players that have been hit will have chances at reviving themselves using various means while continuing to play their turns, only losing the use of their death ray and assistant Igor while they re down. However, when a player is the last mad scientist left standing, they win the game. —description from the publisher
