This is no time for timidity. This is vital, urgent Science.

Game Instructions: This will produce a fair amount of Research. Afterwards, you'll be out of supplies, and any other cards you're currently holding will be discarded.

Aha!

You consider everything: the supply of […]

When everything is ready – and everyone garbed in protective gear – you set the experiment in motion. […]

Rare Success

Lightly singed

Sometimes, in the pursuit of science, one must make sacrifices: Sleep, friendships, the comforting blanket of ignorance. And, in this case, eyebrows.
