Medical Frontier (2017)

About this game

In Medical Frontier, players play medicine-developing researchers, and their mission is to distribute their own budget on different drug development projects to make new drugs. Players need to ensure the new drugs are safe and efficient in treating diseases, while keeping the side effects at controllable levels. Once you meet all of these marketing approval requirements, the new drugs can be launched. Will you save people's lives while making most profits for your lab?

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
