Description

In Bios: Origins, you'll embark on an epic adventure through the ages, guiding your human subspecies from the dawn of time to the brink of enlightenment. As one of four players, you'll represent Sapiens, Neanderthals, Denisovans, or Hobbits, each with their own unique journey. The game takes you on a thrilling ride of discovery, from enlarging your brain and acquiring language to domesticating wild beasts and uncovering the wonders of religion. With a complex web of mechanics, including area majority, auctions, and tech trees, Bios: Origins offers a deeply strategic experience. Playtime can range from 120 to 240 minutes, giving you ample time to explore the modular board and shape the destiny of your civilization. Whether you specialize in culture, politics, or industry, the path to victory is yours to forge, and even a solitary figure on a remote mountaintop can emerge victorious.
