Desperate Oasis
Two players vie for control of scarce oasis sites in a desert setting. Players place animal cards into lanes formed by a row of oasis cards, sometimes deploying animals onto the opponent’s side. Similar animals are pulled together by spatial rules, enabling grouping and repositioning to influence strength and interactions. Each animal card has a special ability that can be triggered during play or revealed at round end, and palm tree tokens modify card values. Players compare totals across lanes to resolve duels and claim oasis cards.
