Earth - The Board Game for 1-5 Players

Millions of years of evolution and adaptation have shaped the flora and fauna of our planet into incredible life-forms, creating diverse habitats and beautiful symbiotic ecosystems. Now is the time to craft your own island, a self-supporting 4x4 tableau of growth, expansion, and supply where unused cards can be turned into compost for future benefit.

Earth is an open-world engine-building game designed for 1 to 5 players, offering simple rules and endless strategic possibilities. With over 364 unique cards to draft from and countless tableau combinations to explore, each game provides a new experience filled with discovery, just like our vast world.

Players will construct an engine of growth and expansion by strategically placing cards in their tableau, creating synergies and connections along the way. Set-up includes receiving an Island, Climate, and Ecosystem card, introducing variable starting resources, bonus abilities, and unique scoring objectives to add depth and asymmetry to the game.

During their turn, the active player selects from four different actions, reaping major benefits while others gain minor benefits. Cards matching the chosen action's color are activated, allowing players to develop their Island, sow Plants, attract Fauna, and unlock bonuses from Ecosystems. The game continues until a player completes their 4x4 tableau, triggering the end game.

Scoring involves tallying victory points earned from completing Ecosystems, meeting Fauna objectives, composting cards, gaining Plant cubes and Growth pieces, and more. The player with the most victory points emerges as the winner after gameplay of approximately 45 minutes for up to 5 players.

Earth features simultaneous play, multiple ways to play including Solo, Team, and Competitive variants, and stunning growth as players add unique plants, habitats, and ecosystems to support wildlife. Environmentally conscious materials were used in production, with FSC qualification and efforts to minimize environmental impact in every copy made. With over 350 unique cards and endless replayability, Earth offers a truly immersive and engaging gaming experience that celebrates the beauty and complexity of our natural world.
