In the Footsteps of Marie Curie

Players assume roles in Marie Curie’s laboratory, conducting experiments and developing a workshop to advance her research and achievements. Gameplay centers on resource management and transformation: players draw from a card river, acquire resources (Pitchblende, Uranium, Radium) via a cube tower, and fulfill contracts to earn progress and Victory Points. Resource retention or overproduction can trigger unexpected effects each turn. A central timeline board tracks players’ progress through Marie Curie’s life; turns proceed clockwise until the timeline reaches its end, then the round completes and the player with the most Victory Points wins.
