Incredible game. I now understand its popularity. The theme comes across really well with the map board and huge deck of cards. The action selection mechanic leaves you with tough choices every turn making every turn engaging.

Loving it so far, a meaty rulebook but lots of avenues to try. Feels like a more complex Wingspan with its huge variety of cards, tactical decisions and mitigating bad draws. Solo is great, there's an unofficial solo bot called ARNO which looks fantastic, as an alternative to the official rules.

Love deck building games and this is one with seemingly unlimited replayability and so many mechanisms for victory. One day I might actually manage to beat my friends at this. Great for animal enthusiasts and I look forward to any new expansions.

Was unsure about buying this at first as some reviews said it was complex and the rule book looked intense. Decided to treat myself and I am so glad I did. Easier to learn than expected, very addictive and its been played solo or 2 player every evening for the last 2 weeks, and no signs of it being put away any time soon. For me it combines the best bits of Terraforming Mars, Wingspan and Rajas of the Gangees into one elegant masterpiece that doesn't outstay its welcome. Its now my favourite game.

Terraforming mars was my favourite game for a long time. I'm a solo gamer and am always on the hunt for big, involved games that make you agonise and think. I also like a long game, happy to sit there for an hour or two and play. Gets me away from the screens :) This is perfect for me, I love it. I've played twice so far, but it's well on its way to becoming my favourite.

Crunchy euro with a zoo theme. Fantastic game with potential for great combos and synergy. Can be long at four player but solo or 2/3 players is ideal
