Description

Phylo is a fun and educational board game where you get to build a thriving ecosystem, complete with real species from nature. The goal is to create a habitat that's in perfect balance, with all the different elements working together in harmony. But here's the twist - you can use natural disasters to shake things up and change the balance of nature, giving your species the upper hand over your opponent. With easy-to-learn rules, Phylo is accessible to players of all ages, and the game can be played in just 30 minutes, making it a great option for a quick game night. As a game designed to promote learning about real animals and the environment, Phylo is a great way to introduce kids to the natural world and how species interact with each other. The game's designer, David Ng, created Phylo as a response to the fact that many kids can identify more fictional creatures than real ones, and it's been a hit since its release in 2010. With its unique blend of simulation and tile placement mechanics, Phylo offers a fun and challenging experience for players, and its educational value makes it a great choice for families or classrooms. Whether you're playing with a friend or family member, Phylo is a great way to spend 30 minutes, and you might just learn something new along the way.
