Nimalia

About the game

What is Nimalia?

Design the best Animal Sanctuary while playing 5 rounds. Each round, players will draw 3 cards, place one, and pass the rest (simple drafting phase). Each card is composed of 4 biomes, each containing an animal. When you place a card, you must cover AT LEAST one biome. The whole Sanctuary must not exceed 6 x 6. Each game will have a different pool of scoring objectives. Each round will only count some of the objectives chosen for the game, so you'll have to modify your sanctuary throughout the game in order to score the most points. At the end of the 5 rounds, the player who earned the most points becomes the winner! -description from publisher
