Asmodée Endangered ENGLISH

Endangered brings a team of wildlife conservationists together to safeguard animal populations amidst ecological threats. Empower your cause through a majority vote from legislators before time runs out.

Use your special abilities and influence to conserve endangered animals. As one of the conservation team members – zoologist, philanthropist, TV wildlife host, lobbyist, or environmental lawyer – you’ll plan a course of action to protect an endangered species. Build animal populations, minimize ecological threats, and build influence among legislative ambassadors according to your team’s unique abilities and problem-solving skills.

A dice placement game uniting conservationists. On each turn, conservationists will roll the dice they can allocate to action cards. However, the die placed to take an action must be larger than one previously placed, or the card is locked to that player. After actions are taken, endangered animal mating pairs will have a chance to procreate, and destruction tiles will enter gameplay, possibly eliminating already scarce animals.

Each game round is considered a year. Depending on the number of players, two sequential years will be designated as voting years. Building influence with United Nations ambassadors is part of the gameplay that occurs by tallying influence for a majority vote during those two years. Once four of the six ambassadors vote “yes” on the conservation resolution during a voting year, the players win.

By contrast, should gameplay reduce the number of animals to one or less, or should the team run out of destruction tiles or time, the team loses the game.
