About the game
What you do in a play session
The trick is that each species has a different way of accumulating points. Some animals yield more points if you have many of them, while others shine with the diversity around them. Therefore, planning is everything! You'll have to think carefully whether it's better to play that lion card now to secure a point, or save it to form a larger combo later. The interaction comes from the 'open drafting,' where you choose cards from an open selection, and of course, from keeping an eye on what others are building in the center.
With super simple rules and games that end in the blink of an eye (about 10 minutes to be exact), Animix is perfect for those who want something light to play with family or friends, but without sacrificing good tactical challenge. It's the kind of game where you play one round and immediately want to play another to test a different strategy. If you enjoy card games with hand management, set collection, and a touch of pattern building, you can jump right in. The art is pleasant, and the game flows beautifully!
