Description Edit | History

Join the fight against rare genetic diseases by becoming a DNA engineer in the fast-paced mind-bending card game Gene Pool! Use strategy and spatial thinking to mutate, invert, delete and insert your way to success!

Overview
Gene Pool is a card game for two players, ages 10 and up, and takes about 20 minutes to play. This first version was published in Fall 2006 as a limited edition of 200 copies. The second edition will be available October 2009

How do you play Gene Pool? You will be competing with your opponent to repair important genes of various length and difficulty with gene therapy. Make these repairs by modifying and rearranging a common DNA sequence with the cards you have in your hand. Your current genetic research goals are private, and are only revealed when they can be found within the DNA sequence. Continue repairing genes until one player completes enough research to win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine and the game!
