Description
Nature of the Beast: Prairie vs. Polar is a strategic game where 2 to 4 players compete to fill their field with animals, with the first to succeed winning the game. Players recruit animals, promote leaders, and use equipment to gain control, while keeping track of Favor and Fury tallies that reflect their relationship with humanity. As players attack opponents, they gain Fury, which can be used to access powerful Dark Nature cards, but too much Fury can lead to elimination. In this 20-minute game, players take on the roles of clever Prairie animals or pragmatic Polar animals, using their unique abilities to outmaneuver their opponents. With normal complexity rules, experienced board game players will have no issue learning the game, making it accessible to a wide range of players. Published in 2012, Nature of the Beast: Prairie vs. Polar offers a fun and strategic experience for players looking for a quick and engaging game.
