Around the middle of the 17th century with the advent of the scientific method, a period of great change begins, called the scientific revolution. Many great scientists, with their theories and ideas, change our perception of the universe: Galileo Galilei, Copernicus, Kepler, Bacon and, above all, Sir Isaac Newton.

In Newton, players take the role of a young scientist who wants to become one of the great geniuses of this period. To do this, they travel around Europe, visit universities and cities, study to discover new theories, build new tools, and work to earn money.

The game is played over six rounds. Each round, every player plays five cards from their hand, with each played card allowing the player to perform one of the game's actions. An action has a variety of effects, which depend on the symbols of that action visible on the board. At the end of the round, a player can take back all the cards played except one. One card has to be left on the board, which means that you give up one possibility of doing that action, but also that the action will be carried out with greater strength. Fortunately, you can acquire new cards that will allow you to perform more actions and with additional powers.

After six rounds, you calculate your final scoring, and the player with the most VP wins.

One of my top 5 favourite games! An overlooked gem!

This game is a lot of fun! In my opinion, it’s way underrated and overlooked. It’s very strategic, and there are many different ways to score points, giving you lots of different paths to victory. It also has a high replay value, as no two games are the same with the various bonus tiles, the location of the tiles, and the randomness of which ones are used each game. I’ve upgraded all the components, including the coins and the potion bottles. I made real glass flasks filled with pink fluid! Great game!

It's quite fun and works well with 4, which complements GAH well. The game does lack player interaction. Also feels like the three main boards work more or less the same way, game could use more variety.
