The rules are simple and easy to learn, making it accessible to players of all skill levels. In Phanerozoic, each player has a unique goal to score points, which means they'll be trying to influence the ecosystem in different ways to achieve their objectives. As you play, you'll draft cards, play mutations, evolve species, and use events to your advantage during the action phase. But be careful, because the ecosystem can be unpredictable. Each round ends with a nature phase, where plants grow and animals feed, and the balance of the ecosystem can shift in unexpected ways.
