Then at the end of the game you have to add up a couple other things and just increased your little token on the board accordingly. You have a board that keeps track of your current total and just move it at the end of every round based around one specific action. This one though feeds you the points in smaller bite sized chunks. There are some games that throw VP’s (victory points) at you left and right and it gets hard to keep track of everything. I think it’s easier to swallow while your playing is why I like it. Now I don’t normally like victory point total style games as win conditions but this one isn’t bad. To win you must have the highest final victory point total. That said it is really cool that this game offers so many options on game length. Because of that I will always prefer the “long” objectives. There are things you WANT to do in this game and if playing a “short” game, you will never achieve all those things. You end up wanting more at the end and left will a feeling of unresolved conflict. I will say that the “short” objectives, although for a quick game, do not really scratch the itch needed. Also played a “long” objective 3 player game and it lasted about 2 hours. A couple of examples, I have played a “short” objective with 2 players and it lasted around 45 minutes to an hour. The objective cards are labeled as “short”, “medium” or “long” depending on how long of a game you want to play.Īdd in player count to that mix which I would say is about 30 minutes per player and you have your game length.

Once 2 of those objectives have been attained then you finish the round and calculate final score. So this one is very highly variable! The game comes with a plethora of objective cards and you shuffle them and use 3 of the cards each game. And you don’t want that! Lost revenue! You are no John Hammond here, you are more like the greedy rich dude that was in the Lost Kingdom. If you can’t keep your security level up enough to at least match that rising threat, people will die. Once you start placing carnivores in your park your threat meter will start to rise. Players will gain victory points based on how many yellow meeples they can get into the park that are NOT eaten.
