Object: Accumulate the most points at the end of the game, or over several games.” Each player is dealt a hand of eight cards from which they attempt to play special combinations. Over forty combinations are defined, such as Photosynthesis (using the cards Chloroplast, Chlorophyll, Light Reactions, Dark Reactions), Sexual Reproduction (using Gametes, Fertilization, Zygote), and Mitosis (with Mitosis, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase.) One point is scored for each card in the combination. The game ends once there are no cards left in the deck or any time a player has no cards left in his hand.
