Potion Explosion Scoring: Potions, Skill Tokens & Endgame
Potion Explosion final scoring is primarily the printed value of completed Potions plus Skill tokens.
Completed Potions
Add the victory-point value printed on every Potion you completed. Drinking a Potion for its power does not remove those points.
Skill tokens: 4 points each
Earn a Skill token when you complete three Potions with the same power or five Potions with five different powers, subject to the normal award rules. Each is worth 4 points.
Help penalties
If you used the Professor/help mechanism and took the associated Help token, apply its printed negative value during final scoring.
Unfinished Potions do not score their full printed value
Only completed Potion tiles contribute their normal Potion points. Ingredients remaining on incomplete recipes are not treated as completed Potions.
Endgame trigger
The end of the game is triggered when the required Skill-token supply has been awarded, with the official rules covering any alternate exhaustion condition and final-turn sequence.
Highest total wins
Add Potion points and Skill tokens, then apply penalties. Use the official base-game tiebreak if final totals are equal.
