Animalia: Preventing Extinction

Conserve wildlife in this cooperative trick-taking game. Players take on the role of researchers conducting missions for the Institute for Wildlife Conservation, collecting data on endangered animals while raising funds for protection and awareness. Each round consists of eight tricks per player. Players must follow suit when possible, and the highest card in the led suit wins the trick. Afterward, players must collect the animal cards listed on their Mission cards; failing any mission causes the group to lose. A campaign mode links missions across multiple continents, with funds carrying from one continent to the next.
