Picture Anton, the most curious anteater in the forest, on a quest for a tasty meal. He doesn’t just feast on ants and termites; he’s after the termite queen’s crown and her general, which are worth more points than any other trophy. In It Happens.., strategy kicks off when you roll your dice and decide which ant hill column to place each one in. Each colony has its own dice column, and the player who controls the majority in a column gains an advantage, but that’s not all: special spaces across the colonies let you collect items, forming sets that also score points at the end. The key is balancing the push for majority with item collection; the player who does this best wins. The game moves fast, with rounds lasting about 30 minutes, and the playful artwork shows Anton in funny predicaments with ants and termites, adding a humorous touch to the battle for supremacy. If you love dice, set‑collection, and a dash of animal humor, It Happens.. is a game that will make you laugh and think at the same time.
