Table feel

Petris has a moderate level of direct confrontation and strategic depth. Players need to pay attention to each other's actions frequently. While there is some cooperation involved, it is not a major focus of the game.

Replay value

Petris has a high replayability score due to its high variability gameboard, strategic depth, and scalability. The presence of expansions and moderate easiness to learn also contribute to its replay value.

Random elements like dice rolls or card draws have a significant impact on the game outcome, but players also have substantial ability to mitigate randomness through strategic decisions and planning. The game is a balanced mix of luck and strategy, with luck playing a minor role in determining the game outcome.

Overview

Petris is a game about bacterial control for 2-3 players, 10 + years old and about 10 minutes of playing time. Each player embodies a scientist who should control the propagation of the bacteria under their supervision. Those bacteria are hungry and they are always looking for food in the adjacent Petri dishes. Watch out! The bacteria that remain alone in a Petri dish will eat a lot and they will reproduce… making it more complicated to control them! During the game you must manage the propagation of your bacteria, for them to reproduce less, thus not to risk the culture in the Petri dishes. At each phase of contamination, you will get contamination points for each Petri dish where you have more bacteria than your opponent. At the end of the game, the player with fewer contamination points will be the winner! —description from the publisher
