## Description
In a distant future, humanity is long gone, and nature has reclaimed its territory. Who would have thought that apes would evolve to the point of forming tribes, learning from human remnants, and seeking knowledge? In 'After Us', you take the lead of one of these primate tribes on a journey towards collective intelligence. Starting with a group of tamarins, your goal is to expand your tribe by attracting powerful gorillas, cunning orangutans, versatile chimpanzees, and wise mandrills.

The game blends deck-building with resource management in a cool way. Each round, you and the other players simultaneously select actions, combining your cards to gather necessary resources and accumulate victory points. The combo system is intuitive and rewards strategic planning. The race is tight, as the first tribal leader to reach 80 points of collective intelligence secures victory for their group and the planet.

With a playtime of 40 to 60 minutes and for 1 to 6 players, 'After Us' offers a racing experience against others, where optimizing your deck and actions is crucial. The strategic weight is moderate, making it accessible for those who enjoy card games with a strategic twist and a post-apocalyptic theme featuring evolved animals. It's a race for evolutionary supremacy, where intelligence and adaptation are the keys to success.
