Who it's for

You like deck-builders and chaining combos, and a big player count is a plus. A good pick for groups that like racing to a point target.

Not for you if…

You want a long, deep campaign or heavy direct conflict. The race to 80 is a fairly focused engine puzzle.

Vibe's take

Snappy and combo-driven. Each turn you look for the best chain from the cards in front of you, then watch your tribe get stronger and your options wider. A race to 80 keeps everyone moving.

About this game

It is 2083, humans are long gone and nature has taken back the world, but apes have kept evolving. You lead a tribe that starts with tamarins and grows by luring in gorillas, orangutans, chimpanzees and mandrills, each bringing different strengths. This is a deck-builder with a twist: every turn you combine your cards in a combo system to gather resources and victory points. The cards decide how fast your tribe develops. First to 80 points wins the race to collective intelligence. For one to six players, about an hour, with a mix of simultaneous action and light racing tension.
