Description

Get ready to unleash your inner mad scientist and take over the world, one continent at a time. In this devilishly clever card game, you'll battle against 1 to 3 other players to be the first to control four of the seven continents. With a simple set of rules that can be explained in no time, you'll be diving into the action in just a few minutes. Each player starts with a hand of seven cards, numbered 1 to 9, which they'll use to strategically place their bids on the continents. But beware, special effect cards like the Radioactive Randomizer, the Dreaded Duplicator, and the Sinister Shuffler can throw a wrench into your plans and change the course of the game. As you compete for world domination, you'll need to think strategically and outmaneuver your opponents. With a playtime of just 30 minutes, the game is quick and fast-paced, making it perfect for a fun and casual game night with friends. Designed by Michael Stern and Shawn F. Carnes, Mad Scientist has been a favorite among science fiction fans and card game enthusiasts since its release in 2000. So gather your friends, grab some cards, and get ready to take over the world - or at least, the continents. With its unique blend of strategy and luck, Mad Scientist is a game that's sure to delight players of all ages and skill levels.
