Welcome to the Insectarium, a museum of insects! You are tasked with creating a board of insect specimens for display in the Insectarium's main hall. You must use your gear, gather insect specimens, and collect tools to precisely arrange and pin your specimens in your display. On your turn, you will choose a card and token from the yard and pin an insect specimen to your board. Precisely pin your insects, collect display tools for bonuses, and swap tokens for gear abilities. During the game, each player will take exactly nine turns to choose specimens and gear, and pin cards to their display board. At the end of the game, each row and column of specimens will be scored based on type and color categories. Will you have the most precise specimen display that will be chosen for the Insectarium? -description from the publisher
