From BoardGameGeek

The Island rose from the sea, growing quickly. Its high mountains, dense forests, vast plains and burning deserts attracted animals: insects, amphibians, birds and mammals. Will one island be able to sustain it all? Evolution Island is a tile managing and card drafting board game for 1 player aged 12 and up, that can be played in 20 to 30 minutes. Player will use drafted cards to place and move tiles in course of 15 turns in order to help evolution rise one dominant animal species and one dominant land type on the island, all the time trying to preserve ecosystem by avoiding extinction of remaining species or disappearance of some land types. -description from the designer
