Description
The Pacific Ocean, 1835. The ship „HMS Beagle“ arrives at the Galápagos islands. On board is the young biologist Charles Darwin, who is later to become famous throughout the world for his revolutionary ideas of evolution and natural selection. However, before this, he spent much of his time collecting and examining a variety of different species. In this game, the players are biologists walking in the footsteps of Darwin. They go on expeditions on the Galápagos islands in order to discover rare species, and create exhibitions to score exhibition points. The player with the most exhibition points when the game ends wins the game
