Origin

Players begin with a single small token in central Africa and guide the expansion of human tribes across a map, placing and upgrading pieces that vary by color, height and thickness. On a turn a player either places a new piece that shares two attributes with a neighbor, moves one of their pieces a distance based on its height, or displaces an opponent’s piece by attacking with a thicker piece. Occupying spaces yields cards or technology tiles depending on the region color; tan, orange and violet spaces give cards and brown spaces give tech tiles drawn in ascending order. Orange cards require meeting tech thresholds before use. Points come from completed objectives, grassland control, strait control, tech stacks and cards in hand; the game ends when pieces, tiles, or a card color run out.
