How it works (4 mechanics)
- [3]_other:i_cut_you_choose— “player has two options: split a collective of animals into two groups and take a food crate, or take one collective”
- [3]set_collection_diversifying— “all animals in pairs are discarded because a guy called Noah claims all animal pairs — score singles and odd sets”
- [2]economy_throttle— “player may never have more than five food crates at any time — pays a food crate for each animal in group”
- [2]closing_window— “game ends when an ark has at least ten animals on board”
