Description

Get ready to unleash your inner creature and take over the world with ORGANISM, a game of growth, multiplication, and struggle for 1 to 6 players. In this game, you'll be controlling an organism made up of three essential elements: EAT, MOVE, and GROW, which are necessary for your organism to survive. The game is all about making the most of your simple actions - EAT, GROW, MOVE, and CIRCULATE - to outmaneuver your opponents and come out on top. With a minimal ruleset that's easy to learn, you'll be able to dive right into the action, but don't be fooled, the game's depth and complexity will keep you engaged for a long time. As you navigate the hexagon grid, you'll have to make tough decisions about when to eat, grow, or move, all while trying to avoid conflicts with other organisms. When elements of opposing organisms meet, the conflict is resolved by removing one or more elements from the board, so you'll need to be strategic about your movements. The game also features mutation cards that can expand the rules and add new twists to the game, making each playthrough unique. With 20 to 90 minutes of playtime, you can enjoy a quick game or a longer, more epic battle for survival. Designed by Ryan Spangler and released in 2025, ORGANISM is a game that will challenge you to think strategically and adapt to changing circumstances. The goal of the game is to capture a certain number of your opponents' elements or eliminate them entirely from the board, or to achieve the ultimate goal of creating three separate organisms that can spread across the globe. With its unique blend of action points, connections, and rock-paper-scissors-style conflicts, ORGANISM is a game that's all about growth, multiplication, and struggle. Whether you're playing solo or with a group of friends, this game is sure to provide hours of entertainment and challenge your strategic thinking. So, are you ready to unleash your inner organism and take over the world?
