Costa Rica

Embark on an exotic journey in the Costa Rica jungle! In this set collection game, you'll face a choice: lead, follow, or step aside. Encounter diverse sets of exotic animals, various terrains, and the ever - present threat of mosquitoes. Your goal as a player explorer is to collect sets of rare and exotic animals to save them from poachers. Gathering many of one kind is great, but having one of each can also give you an edge. Just watch out for those pesky mosquito bites! All players join an expedition. The active player each turn decides the exploration path and reveals a new tile. Then, in clockwise order, players must choose whether to leave the expedition and collect the animals seen so far or stay with the group for more. Once you leave, you take your pawn out and get no more from that expedition. Suitable for 2 - 5 players, takes 30 - 45 minutes, and is for ages 8 and up. Features family fun, exploration, and a bit of luck - pushing action.

How to play: All players start an expedition. The active player each turn decides where to go and explores a new tile. Then, in turn, each player decides whether to leave the expedition and collect the animals they've seen so far or stay to try and get more. Tips: Try to balance collecting many of one kind of animal and having one of each. Also, keep an eye on the mosquitoes - getting bitten too much could be a problem. Maintenance: Keep the game pieces in a dry place to prevent damage. Store the cards in the provided box or a card protector to avoid bending or creasing.
