Each player will assume the role of one of four major aquatic based animal classes dinosaur fish cephalopod or crustacean each begins the game more or less in a state of natural balance in relation to one another but that won t last it is indeed survival of the fittest Through wily action pawn placement you will attempt to thrive in as many different habitats as possible in order to claim powerful card effects you will also want to propagate your individual species in order to earn victory points for your animal you will be aided in these endeavors via speciation migration and adaptation actions among others All of this eventually leads to the end game the final ascent of a vast tropical ocean and its shorelines where the player having accumulated the most victory points will have their animal crowned the Dominant Species But somebody better become dominant quickly because there s a large asteroid heading this way 2 4 PlayersAges 141 3 Hours Playing Time.
