Galapa Go

Players explore an island inhabited by ordinary and mutant animals, trying to rescue more of them than the other hunters. Fifteen animal cards are placed face-up, then a criteria card reveals which animals may or may not be claimed. Each player races to place their island card on a suitable animal, claiming it if the choice meets the criteria or losing a previously claimed card if it does not. After the first group of animals is claimed, a second set enters play. The game ends when only one animal card remains, with variants adding multiple criteria cards or special conditions such as claiming a non-mutant animal or the most or least common animal.
