Abomination: The Heir Of Frankenstein

It is Paris, 1819, and you play God for the sake of the Devil. In secret workshops scattered around the city, stacks of bloodless extremities and human organs fuel a nightmarish contest. A creature that should not exist drives a group of amoral scientists to build it an unspeakable companion. And elsewhere, a grizzled old sea captain clutches the grip of his pistol. He has come to honor the promise made to a dying Victor Frankenstein, and he prays for courage. Taking place 20 years after the events in Mary Shelley’s classic novel, Abomination: The Heir of Frankenstein is a game of competitive monster creation. Race to construct a viable living being to satisfy the mad obsession of your benefactor. Research the newest scientific findings, charge your Leyden jars, and scavenge the local cemeteries for the raw materials needed to perfect your craft. Bribe, steal, exhume and murder your way to victory, for the Creature is always watching, and it does not tolerate failure… 2-4 players Ages 14+ 60-120 minute play time Contents: 1 Paris Board 1 Event Board 4 Laboratory Boards 8 Shock Dice 4 Anatomy Cards 6 Character Cards 15 Encounter Cards 19 Event Cards 16 Humanity Cards 16 Research Cards 16 Scoundrel Cards 52 Cadaver Cards 1 Captain Meeple 1 First Player Creature Meeple 16 Scientist Meeples 12 Assistant Meeples 42 Francs 4 Ice Block Tokens 16 Leyden Jar Tokens 170 Material Cubes 30 Monster Body Part Tokens 28 Damage Markers 4 Player Score Markers 6 Bonus Objective Markers 1 Bribe and Bump Track 4 Event Markers 12 Police Markers 4 Player Reference Cards 24 Alive Markers 12 Plastic Connector Sets 1 Rulebook
