About this board game

Dr. Eureka is a fast-paced science game for 2–4 players that takes about 15 minutes to play. In each round, players race to complete a scientific formula by moving molecules between test tubes without touching them with their bare hands.

The game uses a deck of Challenge cards. After the deck is shuffled, the top card is turned face up, revealing the tube arrangement players must match. Once the challenge begins, everyone picks up their test tubes at the same time and starts transferring the balls from tube to tube.

Speed and precision are essential. Players must move the molecules carefully until their tubes match the configuration shown on the card. The first player to complete the arrangement wins the round, putting quick thinking and steady handling to the test.

  • For 2–4 players
  • Approximately 15 minutes of play
  • Simultaneous molecule-moving challenges
  • Challenge cards with tube arrangements to match
  • First player to win 5 rounds wins overall

For fairness, the player revealing the card can count to a number such as five before everyone begins. This gives all players the same starting moment while preserving the race to finish first.

Released in 2015, Dr. Eureka turns simple transfers between test tubes into a lively competition. Complete the formulas faster than your opponents and prove who is the smartest scientist in the lab.
