Story
Becoming a researcher studying poison, I came to the sea to investigate poisonous creatures. I want to collect as many creatures as possible, but if I collect a lot, I will mishandle the creatures and get poisoned. Will you be able to successfully collect them and advance your poison research?
Poison Researcher is a trick-taking game with the theme of poisonous creatures of the sea.
To start a game, first remove cards from deck equal to the number of players and return them back to the box (they are not used in this game). Distribute the remaining cards to the players (12 cards per player).
The starting player chooses any one card from the dealt cards and plays it face up. After that, all other players play one card from their hand in clockwise order, adhering to must follow rules. After all cards have been played, the person with the highest number written on their card among the cards from the lead suit wins. An exception would be if all players played a different suit, the highest card among them wins whever its the lead card or not.
When you run out of cards, count the number of times you won (the creature cards you won). The player with the second most wins receives two Poison tokens, and the player with the third most wins receives one Poison token. The player with the most wins gets nothing. This is repeated as many times as the number of players, and the player who gets the most tokens wins.
If there are multiple 2nd place players, the player with the most poisonous cards wins as 2nd place.
The game comes with 5 difficulty levels. In the two highest levels, it's the second-highest card of the lead suit that wins the trick and it is the one with the most cards that wins the most Poison tokens.
The animals are also divided in two categories: toxic by Stinging (the Cone Snail, the Box Jellyfish and the Stonefish) and toxic by biting (the Sea Snake and the Blue-Ringed Octopus. In the 3rd and 5th advanced levels, the category of the lead suit determines whever the highest/2nd highest card(Toxic by Biting) or the lowest/second-lowest card (Toxic by Stinging) wins.
