Description: Be on the prowl in Ecosystem: Savanna, a Serengeti-inspired card-drafting game. Players choose, pass, and arrange cards representing a diversity of organisms found in an African grassland, including zebras, elephants, cheetahs, and lions. Earn points by aligning herbivores with habitable landforms like watering holes or carnivores to devour nearby prey. Diversify your food web to maximize your bonuses. Each time you play, you build one-of-a-kind ecosystem as you strive to balance the delicate connections between all living things.
FASCINATING FACT:
Includes built-in solo play rules, and scoring rewards matching herbivores to correct habitats and carnivores to correct prey.
