Ecogon

About the game

What is Ecogon?

The word "Ecogon" is made up of two parts: ecology and hexagon. This also sums up the game itself: by playing hexagonal tiles players form ecosystems. As the designer of the ecosystem in Ecogon, it is your job to create the broadest and most stable network of plants, animals and habitats. The aim of the game is to score points by building ecosystems in which the animals can live. This is done by connecting animal tiles side by side with habitat, plant and other animal tiles which they need for survival. Throughout the game your ecosystems face challenges brought about by event cards. Play together or against each other to let nature take shape in front of you. —description from the publisher
