From BoardGameGeek

Biomes of Nilgiris is a board game in which players venture into India's surreal Nilgiri biosphere, teeming with unique flora and fauna. As conservationists - ecologists, photographers, and citizen scientists - they aim to discover new species, address ecological issues, complete conservation missions, and earn ecology points. Players collaboratively adapt to two ever-changing scenarios in each game, introducing fresh concepts and objectives. As specialists, they explore the vast reaches of Nilgiris, journal field entries, gain experience at the station, equip themselves with tools, conserve species in their habitat, and skillfully resolve ecological challenges. The game is intended to be an immersive experience celebrating nature's wonders and the art of conservation. The game is set in a turn-based, mission-oriented format. Each turn, players can take three of eight actions: TRAVEL on the modular board EXPLORE to open up new biome cards JOURNAL to take notes on a field guide STUDY to gain usable XP from your notes DISCOVER new species EQUIP a new equipment CONSERVE species or biomes, primarily to gain ecology points -description from the designer
