About the game
Get ready for an intense strategic showdown in Feral, a two-player board game that transports you to a remote tropical island. Here, two teams of twelve unique animals face off in a race for survival and victory. The objective is simple, but the execution is full of nuances: lead one of your animals to the beach on the opposite side of the board to claim glory. Each of the twelve animals possesses a special ability inspired by real behaviors, making them easy to understand and remember. Imagine pushing like a bull, throwing like a gorilla, or stinging like a bee – the tactical possibilities are vast! Players take turns, performing two moves per turn, which opens up space for powerful combos and surprising twists. And to ensure that each match is unique and fair, the starting position of the animals changes with each new game. But be careful, reaching the beach is not an immediate guarantee of victory! Your opponent will have one last chance to neutralize the threat. If they succeed, the battle continues. The lion, however, adds a dramatic twist: if your lion is defeated, you instantly lose. But if it's the first to reach the opposite side, victory is yours immediately, with no right of counter-attack for the opponent. It's a fast, tactical game full of impactful decisions!
