Algae, Inc.
Run a sector of a company that cultivates and processes algae into cosmetics, bioplastics, and biodiesel. Players manage an assembly-style production line, hire and deploy operators, engineers, and scientists, and expand operations across European locations. The game emphasizes resource management, tableau building, and multi-processing: each player has a unique board and adapts strategy to their department, optimizing processing steps, unlocking engineer or science tiles, and timing milestones relative to other departments. Decisions on staffing, factory upgrades, and action improvements drive efficiency and long-term planning.
