Ecosystem: Savanna

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 placing carnivores to devour nearby prey. Diversify your food web to maximize your bonuses. Each time you play, you build a one-of-a-kind ecosystem as you strive to balance the delicate connections between all living things.

Ecosystem: Savanna is the third standalone game in the Ecosystem series, featuring a new lineup of organisms, including powerful scavengers.

Players take turns drafting organism cards and arranging them into a 4x5 "ecosystem" in front of them. Once all players have completed their personal grid of 20 cards, players score their ecosystems using the rules for each card type. Scoring rewards players for building cohesive food webs and exploring the diversity of the Savanna ecosystem. The player with the most points wins!

Includes rules for solo play.
