About the game
What you do in a play session
Pangea throws you right into the chaos of the late Permian, a time when Earth almost ran out of critters! It's a strategic board game where each player leads a species and must do everything possible for it to survive the imminent extinction. Think about adapting your crew to the planet's changes, competing for territory with other species, and ensuring your lineage doesn't turn to dust.
You'll use action points to move your creatures across the map, try to dominate key areas, and, of course, leverage your species' unique powers to get ahead. The game aims to make you feel the pressure of a collapsing world, where every decision counts towards survival. It's a challenge for those who enjoy long-term planning and dealing with a constantly changing environment. Get ready for a fight for survival on a geological scale!
