Dominant Species

Dominant Species pits players against each other as different classes of animals attempting to thrive during an impending ice age. Players use worker placement to select actions each round, from drafting cards that grant special abilities to directly manipulating the environment and spreading their species across the board's modular terrain. Carefully consider your actions, as each can dramatically impact the availability of resources and the overall balance of power.

The core of the game revolves around area control and adaptation. Players compete to dominate different terrain types and exploit available food sources, ultimately aiming to score the most points by having the most dominant species in the most favorable environments as the ice age descends. With variable player powers representing distinct animal classes, each game presents unique strategic challenges and opportunities, demanding skillful adaptation and tactical foresight to achieve dominance.
