Description
In Oikos, players take on the role of animals living in harmony with their environment, competing to have the most influence over the landscape. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 2 to 6 players can jump into this game, which typically lasts between 15 to 30 minutes. Designed by Eduardo M. Dos Reis and released in 2024, Oikos combines variable player powers, area majority, and movement to create a unique experience. As players navigate the map, they add new areas and take actions to expand their presence, all while managing an action queue to plan their next moves. With its environmental theme and fun animal mechanics, Oikos offers a fresh take on area control games, making it easy for new players to learn while still providing depth for more experienced gamers to enjoy.
