HOLOCENE
I developed the board game concept for Holocene while working at Luma World.
Luma World is a company aimed at creating board games that gamify educational concepts for children.
Holocene is a semi-cooperative tile placement strategy game that aims to make the players understand through simulation, the delicate intricacy of the ecosystem, and learn about the dangers of exploiting it.
RULES
Try to get to the top of the food chain. But beware! If any one species goes extinct, then everyone loses! Environmental events such as habitat loss, pollution, hunters etc.
Each Player controls a species that participates in an intricate food web. Players must feed on other players, gather energy and earn adaptations for their species in order to evolve into the Apex Species.
However, players must ensure that the delicate balance of the ecosystem is maintained. No species can go extinct, or it all players lose! In addition, players must battle environmental factors co-operatively to help life survive and thrive!
