Description

In CoLab, you're a scientist working in a shared laboratory space, racing to create the most innovative devices, potions, and monsters to earn renown. With 1 to 4 players, you'll compete to build the most impressive creations over 90 to 120 minutes. The game is easy to learn for board game enthusiasts, with normal complexity rules. As you send your minions to gather resources and place your player miniature in laboratory locations, you'll balance giving away resources to opponents with gaining opportunities for yourself. As the game progresses, the modular board expands, offering new possibilities for all players. You'll collect monster, device, or potion dice to generate more research, and strategically place your creations in your grid to create new opportunities or gain more renown. With a unique blend of deck, bag, and pool building, dice rolling, and worker placement mechanics, CoLab challenges you to become the most renowned scientist by building a wide variety of creations or focusing on one type to win the game.
