Trepanation

The medical haberration Frankenstein was a best-selling novel, and medical shows in which doctors electrified corpses, pulled teeth or sold their "miracle cures" attracted huge crowds.

The game is played over six days (rounds). At the start of each day, players prepare their schedule by reserving time slots at locations around the city, and then the day's events unfold according to this schedule. Players gather drugs and equipment, employ accomplices, bribe the police and organize shows - but not all plans run smoothly.

Other players will create stock-outs, steal your audience and take over vital time slots! Playing shows in related settings gives you notoriety bonuses, as does getting your name in the local papers. Grave robbing at night harms your reputation, but earns you money! At the end of a busy week, the player with the most fame wins.

This worker-placement game has plenty of room for action, as you synchronize your actions to make the most of your limited resources.
