Bumúntú

Guide a journey through the jungle by following the wisdom of animals inspired by Bakongo folklore. Each animal has a unique movement ability, helping players collect its favor while affecting movement around the board. Collect animal chips, influence the Favor Leaderboard, and gather Nkisi statues and Yowa spiritual symbols for bonus points. As animals leave the board, the remaining choices become more important before favor is scored.

This definitely requires you to look at the player aid shield since the animals love different ways. I wish the bananas were worth points at the end. I also don't like how you move the points for the animal scoring. It should be more of an adjacent swap versus place wherever you want. It makes it more enticing to grab that animal points tile.

Fell in love with this hidden gem and instantly bought it. Falls in the "Azul" class— simple abstract with good production values, accessible to varied game groups. This is however movement based, set collection and has a bit of "stock manipulation" vibe. I only wish it scaled better at lower player counts too.
