✅ The table presence is simply gorgeous with the colorful artwork and vertical growth in the wooden components. ✅ Actions make up pretty much every element of gameplay, which removes the need for downtime between rounds. ✅ Managing the solo opponent is pretty straightforward and the difficulty level is simple to choose from the start. ✅ Lots of variety exists with the enormous stack of cards, especially with different activated abilities and scoring. ✅ Nearly all of the components are contained on the player boards or card grid, limiting the required table space. ✅ Double-sided cards provide even more options and variety in the animals, climates, ecosystems, and islands.

❌ It feels like there are too many resources to manage, especially when they convert back and forth so often. ❌ Everything is worth victory points, which takes away the challenge of learning how to optimize a set of options. ❌ Many scoring goals rely on getting the right cards fairly early on, and the giant stack can make this frustrating. ❌ Although the theme should be very apparent, the confusing iconography often remains the main focus.
