Description

Imagine working at the Time Zoo, a place filled with incredible prehistoric animals, and just as it's about to open, chaos erupts and all the animals escape. That's where you come in - it's your job to lure them back to the zoo. In Time Zoo, a fun and fast-paced card game designed by Ruud Nederpelt, you'll compete against 1 to 3 other players to see who can bring back the most animals and earn the highest internship allowance from Professor Darwina Anning. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, you'll be playing in no time, and with games lasting only 20 to 30 minutes, you can fit in a few rounds. The gameplay is all about collecting the right food cards to lure different prehistoric animals back to your part of the Time Zoo. Each animal has its own unique properties and is worth points at the end of the game, so you'll need to strategize about which ones to focus on. But it's not just about collecting food - many of the cards also have special abilities that can help you get more food, add points to your score, or even sabotage your opponents. This mix of set collection and "take that" mechanics adds a fun layer of complexity to the game, making it engaging for players of all skill levels. As you play, you'll be trying to outmaneuver your opponents to collect the most valuable animals and earn the most points. With its prehistoric theme and animal cards, Time Zoo is a great choice for anyone who loves animals or card games. Released in 2024, this game is a fresh and exciting addition to any game collection, and its short playtime makes it perfect for a quick game night with friends or family. So why not give it a try and see if you have what it takes to become the top intern at the Time Zoo?
