Description

Get ready to dive into the world of molecular biology with Okazaki, a strategic card game designed by Patrick Engro. Released in 2020, this game is perfect for solo players or those who enjoy competing against a friend, with playtime lasting around 20 minutes. The rules are easy to learn, making it accessible to new players, but don't let that fool you - the game requires careful hand management and card drafting to come out on top. In Okazaki, you'll be competing to replicate a DNA sequence by creating base pairs and writing them into a new sequence. With only 18 identical cards, you'll need to utilize mutation and DNA repair abilities to manipulate your hand and sequence. The first player to correctly replicate the origin sequence wins, making for a tense and strategic experience. As an abstract strategy game, Okazaki challenges you to think critically and make the most of the cards you have, making it a great choice for fans of card games and puzzle-solving. Whether you're playing solo or against an opponent, Okazaki is a fun and engaging game that's sure to keep you on your toes.
