📖 About This Game
Dr. Frankenstein is a reimplementation of Frankenstein published in 2005 with expanded player count up to 4 players.
Dr. Frankenstein is a game where the doctor and Igor try to get sets of three ingredients from a large 5x10 ingredient rack. During a turn, the player has three action points to manipulate the ingredient columns, trying to get the exact set of three ingredients they are looking for, either on top of a single column or on three adjacent columns.
Re-stacking columns is quite intuitive: you can move stacks of any size, but you can never move them up, only the same height or down. The first player to collect five sets wins the game.
