The march of humankind’s progress threatens the survival of many species. It's up to you and your team to save them!
Work with your fellow conservationists to save tigers and sea otters from extinction. Influence the UN to save the animals and stop environmental destruction. If four UN ambassadors vote yes on the resolution then the players win. But until the vote takes place, players need to keep the destruction at bay, and keep the animals alive!
Each turn players will roll the dice they can allocate to action cards. After actions are taken, mating pairs will have a chance to procreate, and destruction tiles will enter the board, possibly killing already scarce animals.
Play as the Zoologist, Philanthropist, TV Wildlife Host, Lobbyist, or Environmental Lawyer, each with a special ability.
Time is short. Can the animals be saved while also influencing the Ambassadors' votes? Or will threatened animals be lost forever?

5.0 - My absolutely favorite games. You can pry them out of my cold dead hands.
4.5 - Love this game! At the same time missing something that would make it a 5. Could be hard to table, lacking variability, a little light, etc.
4.0 - Really great game, almost always keeping, although has meaningful complaints as to what takes away from the experience.
3.5 - Really enjoyed, don't love it, may lose out to better games but the idea of never playing again is a bit sad.
3.0 - A good game, would play and suggest with the right people, if I never played it again wouldn't lose any sleep.
2.5 - A game I'd play again , but will never suggest it myself
2.0 - A game I don't want to play again
1.5 - A game I can't find any reason to recommend
1.0 - A game that is just bad.

We play a lot of cooperative games in our house, and this one probably has gotten the most play over the past year. We love the theme, and are always intensely worried for the species in play. Our games are generally tight, with the outcome being decided in the second voting year. We are usually able to reflect back on a failed game to see just where we made an error that put us off course, and always feel exclaim “yes!” and exchange high-fives when we succeed. The variety of species the designers have covered is amazing, including the newly released monarch butterflies, which my family played tonight. Love this game and and can’t recommend it enough.

At this point in it's life I have had really, really positive experiences. When we did lose, it was because we had made poor choices with our dwindling population. Ultimately it was the card draw that defeated us but our choices leading up to that point put us in the position. Hopefully, it will continue to be a winner but I can completely see your concerns. Just got the butterfly expansion and excited to give it a try.

Thanks for this review! I've been curious about this one for a while now. And I'm still intrigued because I like the theme so much...

I have played both solo and 2 player. I love this game, but personally I love it solo. Such a great game and all of the species give you different feels. Some are MUCH harder than others as well.
