Great Scott!

Players take the roles of rival Victorian inventors drafting cards to build five whimsical inventions for a contest at the Great Exhibition. Cards represent Asset types (Animal, Mineral, Vegetable) and Concept types (Destructive, Productive, Transportive); players add components to each invention and score for matching asset-concept sets and for alliterative names. When an invention is completed, the owning player describes its function and workings to earn extra points from the other players. Gameplay focuses on drafting, set-building, and creative presentation over several quick rounds.
