Putting Together the Building Blocks of our World to Get there First!

In Race to Discovery, build as many molecules as possible, and earn the most money to win the game. Use your elements wisely since other players are in a race to "discover" and build the same molecules that can only be made once during the game.

Play as Renowned Chemists and Receive Special In-Game Advantages Based on Who You Choose

Each player steps into the role of a famous chemist – building, negotiating trades, and pivoting as the availability of elements changes. You get to choose which chemist you want to be based on your preference for their superpower "Game Bonus", receiving advantages like earning money when a specific molecule is built or avoiding pitfalls like the dreaded Virus space.

Familiar Gameplay with Fresh Objectives

You will move around the board, collect tiles, trade, manage what you hold, and adapt to Fate and Fortune cards. The structure is instantly approachable for fans of classic tabletop games, so the chemistry theme feels inviting from the first turn.

Set at the Birth of the Modern Era, Where Invention is Everywhere

Race to Discovery lives in a French Belle Époque-inspired setting of brass instruments, polished glassware, handwritten labels, and the charged atmosphere of early modern science. Here, Chemistry is invention, progress, commerce, and public fascination.
