How to Play Mission Savane?
In Mission Savane, players must collaborate to free all the animals before the poachers take over. As night falls, you carefully sneak to the cages to set the animals free—but watch out! The poachers are closing in!
- Setup: Place the savanna board and lay out the double-sided animal tiles with the cage side facing up. Put the key and poacher tokens into the fabric bag.
- Gameplay: Players take turns drawing a token from the bag.
- If it’s a key: The player can rescue an animal. They can either free an animal matching the animal on the key token (regardless of the cage color) or any animal in a cage matching the key’s color. The freed animal is flipped to the free side.
- If it’s a poacher: The player must place it on a poacher space on the board. If all poacher spaces are filled before all animals are rescued, the players lose.
- End of the Game:
- Victory: If all animals are freed before all poacher spaces are filled.
- Defeat: If all poacher spaces are filled before all animals are rescued.
