📖 About This Game
Expand the award-winning game Earth with the Animal Kingdom expansion, which introduces 36 new animals, each with powerful asymmetrical abilities that change how you build your tableau. Whenever you use a leaf, your chosen animals activate, generating resources, triggering abilities, or unlocking new scoring opportunities. At the end of each round, a global animal ability activates for all players, providing everyone with an opportunity to plan ahead to leverage its effects.
No two animals play the same. Each one interacts with your tableau in a unique way, challenging you to shape your ecosystem to maximize their potential. Animal Kingdom brings your tableau roaring to life with animeeples that roam your tableau, interacting with the flora and terrain you've cultivated.
From the burrowing pocket gopher to the soaring golden eagle, each animal breathes new life into Earth.
