Wild Life: The Card Game

Overview

What ABG knows about this game

Wild Life is a quick and fun competitive game for 2 to 7 players about making card sets of different animals that generate points at the end of each cycle or round. The main precepts of the game are: simple, fun, high interaction between players, and environmental awareness. At the beginning of your turn you will have 6 cards in hand and you will necessarily have to play 3. The game has 4 types of animal cards: small, large, flying, and aquatic. Each one scores a different amount of points as long as they survive until the end of the cycle. In addition, you can use enhancer ecosystem cards that will multiply the points you'll get. You can mess with other players and this is where it gets interesting, for this you have 3 alternatives: The predator which eliminates an animal from an opponent. The hunter who eliminates all animals of one type from a player. The catastrophe (fire or water pollution) that affects all players, including you. As you play and have fun you will develop environmental awareness.
