Stack, steal, and secure your herds in this fast-paced and exciting game. Play individually, or in teams, and work to outwit your opponents on your way to achieving Herdvana and victory. A bit of strategy, a bit of luck, and a whole lot of fun. Great for big groups, or even one-on-one action, each game will be a unique experience! On a players turn they can take 1 of 7 actions: Create a herd of two animals, add to a herd, draw from the discard to add to a herd or create a herd, place a farmer to protect a herd, play an animal to steal an opponent's herd, play an alien to abduct a farmer, or discard. The game is played until the deck runs out. Herds are scored based on the cards value on the animals, and players score a bonus 10 points if the get a Herdvana (all 8 of an animal type).
