Nature Big Box Edition

Description

Deluxe Edition includes: All content from Nature Big Box Upgraded Nature Tokens Upgraded Module Tokens Predator Meeples

Nature is a streamlined, deeper, and more forgiving redesign of the blockbuster Evolution, built from the ground up to be seamlessly expandable. Its core innovation is a modular system that lets players create and explore a different ecosystem every time they play.

To showcase this modularity, Nature was first released on Kickstarter as the Nature Big Box edition. Nature Big Box includes the core game, the first five modules, and one mini-module.

Adapt to a Changing Environment: In Nature, players compete to grow thriving populations in an ecosystem where food is scarce and predators are ever-present. Evolve traits such as Fast to escape danger, Climbing to reach fruit high in the canopy, or Pack Hunting to bring down larger prey.

Create a Unique Ecosystem Every Game: Nature core is an accessible gateway into a world of dynamic ecosystems. Despite its strategic depth, Nature can be taught and played with casual gamers in under an hour. Experienced players can customize each session using modules that dramatically change the ecosystem. Add Nature: Flight for people who prefer to avoid conflict, Nature: Jurassic for a more aggressive game, or Nature: Arctic Tundra for a survival game on the edge of the livable world.

With five modules and two mini-modules, Nature currently offers 96 possible ecosystem combinations. Following the 2026 release of the Climate module and two additional mini-modules, players will be able to explore over 700 unique ecosystems.

How to Play: Nature is a card-driven tableau builder played over four rounds (five rounds when using one or more modules). Each round is divided into two phases: the Adapting Phase and the Feeding Phase.

Adapting Phase: Use five cards as actions to:

• Increase Population
• Increase Body Size
• Play Traits to evolve your species
• Save cards for use as food during the Feeding Phase

Feeding Phase: Feed as much of your population as possible. At the end of each round, players score 1 point for every population they keep alive. The winner is the player who sustains the most population across the game.
