Sapiens

Guide a prehistoric clan across a valley by placing domino-style tiles on a personal board representing plains, forests, and mountains. On each turn, connect one tile from a personal pool to existing tiles with matching scenes to earn food points for plains/forests, shelter points for reaching caves, and trigger scene-specific abilities. Then refill the personal pool by selecting from a shared market of tiles. Players manage two separate scores (food and shelter), with the lower score determining final success, and use modular boards and eight scene powers to create spatial puzzles and strategic trade-offs.

    Just too complicated for what it is.
