Who it's for

Mixed groups including people who don't usually play games — animal facts are a level playing field, and kids often surprise everyone.

Not for you if…

Trivia leaves you cold or your group has one walking encyclopaedia who wins every time. The big box takes real table space, and pure knowledge games mean your decisions barely matter.

Vibe's take

Surprisingly social: lots of loud confident nonsense, followed by everyone leaning in to see the real numbers.

About this game

A guessing game about 360 animals. Each round one animal is revealed and everyone bets on its weight, length, height, tail length and where on Earth it lives, by placing tokens on a big world map and on measurement scales. Near misses still score, but occupied spots are gone.
