How To Play Viral by Arcane Wonders - Board Games Live Teach

The Board & Barrel

The Board & Barrel

Watch “How To Play Viral by Arcane Wonders - Board Games Live Teach,” a how-to-play guide for Viral from The Board & Barrel on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by The Board & Barrel on YouTube:

Viral is an area control board game for 2 to 5 players where you take on the role of a virus, and the areas you're controlling are organs inside a human body. Viruses compete to have the biggest infection in different parts of the body to score points, and a simple tie-breaker mechanic that breaks common ties in favor of whoever had the least number of points at the end of the last round has a big impact on gameplay, as does the simultaneous action selection and turn-based action resolution. Guests this week were SungWon Cho (aka ProZD) and Danica Sweet.

About Viral, from BoardGameGeek:

You are a VIRUS that has just infected a human body. Now you have to spread out and mutate your virus in order to infect other organs to gain VIRAL POINTS. But watch out for the other VIRUS controlled by other players and the powerful IMMUNE SYSTEM! VIRAL is a 2-5 players competitive boardgame in which each player controls a virus that is growing inside a human body. Players will simultaneously play cards to place tokens on the board and move them around to gain control of zones to score Viral Points. Players also score points when they cause a crisis in an organ, thus activating the anti-virus (the immune system). Players also can play cards that allows them to attack other players. The player with the most Viral Points when the event deck runs out is the winner of the game VIRAL!
