Chill Pill (2017)

Nanodaption of Fever Chill. Way back at the end of 2015, we released a little wallet game called Fever Chill. It's nearly sold out at this point, but revived by Nat Levan in his line of Nanodaptions that capture the essence of the game in a smaller package. In Chill Pill, you will simultaneously choose actions to try to raise the infection level above 7 without raising the temperature too high. —description from the publisher Based on Fever Chill by Kenneth Thompson. Now you play the viruses competing to infect a body. Players simultaneously infect a part of the body to increase their infection level, but too many viruses in one place also raises the temperature. The doctors always target the virus with the highest temperature, so you can only win by infecting faster than the doctors can treat or outlasting your fellow viruses. This game is back to basics, with two board variations on one two-sided card and a rule card. Just add 2 tokens per player (and an optional die) to play anywhere from 2-4, 5, 6, or more. Released in the July 2017 Board Game of the Month Club $5+ package.
