📖 About This Game
Frankenstein is a fast-moving, monster-building strategy game for 2-5 players ages 10 and up that takes 30-40 minutes to play.
Play mad scientists competing to be the first to create life through the power of alchemy. Each turn, you may buy the offered body part, sell to an anatomist for a meager profit, or auction it, trying to get a better deal or rip off you opponents. You might be lucky and get a coffin with a weakling's cadaver in it; or your involvement in the macabre trade might invoke the villager's wrath.
