Table feel

The Brain has a moderate level of direct confrontation and strategic depth in confrontation. Players need to frequently pay attention to and react to each other's strategies. However, there is less emphasis on cooperation in the game.

Replay value

The Brain offers a high level of variability, strategic depth, and scalability, making it a highly replayable game. The presence of expansions and moderate learning curve further enhance its replay value.

Luck profile

The Brain has a low influence of luck. Random elements have minimal impact on the game outcome, and players have substantial ability to mitigate randomness through strategic decisions and planning. The game outcome is primarily determined by player strategy and decisions, with luck playing a minor role.

Overview

The Brain consists of one or more attempts to solve a puzzle, with 1-4 players continuing to try until they give up or succeed. You are not allowed to communicate with each other during play. Will you manage to clear all the cards with logic, deduction, counting, and a little bit of luck? Try it on every level until you succeed! On your turn, you must place a card from your hand in the middle of the table, perform the corresponding action, then draw a card from the deck. If all cards in your hand have been played and the draw pile is empty, you win — but as soon as there is a predetermined number of cards on the table at the end of a turn, you all lose. If this happens, you can discuss how to do better next time, then try again!
