Description
In Transcribe, players assume the role of alchemists studying the art of transmutation and mastering Alchemical Processes to complete their Magnum Opus and become the most Renown alchemist in history.
Each turn players will simultaneously activate their Transmutation Engine, chart the Astrology Map, Upgrade their Engine and boast of their discoveries.
When a player completes their Magnum Opus, the game enters its final turns. The player with the most Renown (victory points) at the end of the game is the winner.
If you are familiar with board game genres, Transcribe: the Art of Alchemy is a programmed movement roll and write.
