Embark on a thrilling journey through the dawn of life with Bios: Genesis, a captivating board game for 1 to 4 players!

In this intriguing game, players begin as organic compounds in the primordial world, represented by up to four unique Biont tokens. Each token embodies a vital component of life:

  • Amino Acids: Command the vital processes of Metabolism.
  • Lipids: Work together to create cellular structures.
  • Pigments: Control the absorption and storage of energy.
  • Nucleic Acids: Master templated replication to ensure survival.

Your mission is twofold: first, to develop as Autocatalytic Life, a metabolic cycle that reproduces without replicating its components, followed by the transformation into Darwinian Life, capable of using a template for replication within an RNA-rich world.

Whether you prefer collaborating with teammates, competing against friends, or enjoying a solo adventure, this game offers flexible play styles to suit every preference.

Designer Phil Eklund presents an ambitious and intricate exploration of life's origins. He has dedicated years to perfecting this unique experience, and with Bios: Genesis, along with Bios: Megafauna and Bios: Origins (Second Edition), players can delve deep into the vast history and complexity of life on Earth.

Prepare to challenge your strategic thinking and immerse yourself in the science of life like never before!
