Genotype: A Mendelian Genetics Game^*

Gregor Mendel, the 19th-century Augustinian monk credited with the discovery of modern genetics, serves as the backdrop for this game. Players act as his assistants, collecting experimental data on pea plants by controlling how these plants inherit key traits from their parents, such as seed shape and flower color. The game involves rolling dice to simulate plant breeding, with players aiming to complete pea plant cards for points based on the phenotypes they desire.
