Tembo
Players guide herds of grazing animals as they cross a dangerous river filled with predators. Each turn players choose timing and positioning to move animals across river tiles while avoiding crocodiles and lions that threaten the herd. Actions involve selecting which animals to advance, using elephants as protective escorts, and managing risk as predator presence and river conditions change. The game resolves encounters and scoring based on how many animals reach the far shore safely and how effectively elephants shield the crossings.
