All Aboard!

Players try to get their herd of twelve animal cards onto a series of boats without exceeding each boat’s capacity. The game plays over four rounds; in each round players place three animals per boat (two face up and one face down) with a three-animal maximum per boat. After hidden cards are revealed, matching species and animal abilities resolve (pairs score, triples cause fights and sinkings), then boat capacity is checked by summing animal weights. Saved animals score at game end while animals on sunk boats are discarded. Timing of plays and reading opponents’ placements determine who rescues the most animals.
