20 years after his voyage around the world, Charles Darwin is in the midst of writing The Origin of Species. He wants to deepen his knowledge of animal life on continents he had not or rarely visited. Who better than young naturalists eager for discovery to help the illustrious scholar finish writing his most famous work!
On the Trail of Darwin is a family game for 2 to 5 players where naturalists complete their notebooks by selecting Animal and Character tiles from the common Travel board. But beware, only tiles located in front of the Beagle ship can be chosen!
Thanks to ingenious mechanics of Constrained Selection and Overlapping, naturalists will have to choose between publishing theories, observing animals of the same species, or studying species from the same continent. Competition is fierce, and you will have to be strategic to succeed Darwin!
