Today’s Gift Idea: Evolution Board Game
Evolution is an award-winning board game where 2 – 6 players adapt species in an ever changing ecosystem with hungry predators and limited resources. Hard shell, long neck or an ambush predator? Your goal is to give your species useful traits so they will thrive. The points system is based on the total amount of food that your species eats, which is a measure often used by biologists to quantify the success of a species. With over 12,000 different species to create, every game becomes a different adventure. Just try not to get too attached to your creatures, as the threat of extinction is never far off. So gather your friends and see who can best adapt their species to eat, multiply and thrive!
