In Evolution players adapt their species in a dynamic ecosystem where food is scarce & predators lurk Traits like Hard Shell & Horns will protect your species from Carnivores while a Long Neck will help them get food that others cannot reach With over 4000 ways to evolve your species every game becomes a different adventure Evolution packs a surprising amount of variety for a game with simple rules The variety comes from the synergies between the trait cards & from the different personalities at the table Some players thrive on creating Carnivores to wreak havoc on their fellow players Others prefer to stay protected & mind their own business Evolution encourages both play styles by giving each of them multiple paths to victory & it is the mix of play styles at the table that ultimately determines the ecosystem in which the players are adapting So gather your friends & see who can best adapt to the changing world around them " The theme of evolution is not just tacked on it drives play"
