Moderate level of interaction with a good balance between direct and strategic confrontation. Players need to frequently pay attention to others' actions, but cooperation is not a major focus in the game.

While luck plays a significant role, player decisions and strategy also have a substantial influence on the game outcome.

Overview

A lion, a crocodile, a gorilla and a rhinoceros meet on the shore of Lake Victoria. The lion roars (as he always has been the king of the animals), the crocodile suggests him to repeat that closer to the water edge, gorilla starts to beat its chest like King Kong and the rhino says "Do recognize my horn as the royal crown or I will have to use it in a different way..." Then they make a deal: the new king will be named the one who gets the biggest support of other animals. Gather the animals (cards in your hand) into the herds (on the table), use their abilities and deploy them in the right combinations to achieve points. Flip them face down (and sometimes face up). Use your memory as much as your tactical and combinatorical reasoning. —description from the publisher
