From BoardGameGeek

Wyld is a competitive tableau building card game for 2-5 players where each player seeks out creatures and cryptids called Wyldlings to rehabilitate them in their own Habitats. At the start of each Round, the Leader plays a Wylding card belonging to one of four Habitats: Mountains, Grasslands, Graveyards, or Deserts. Every other player must then play a card belonging to the same Habitat if they can. Once every player has played a card, they take turns drafting those cards and adding them to their personal Habitats. The person who played the Wylding card with the highest Initiative of a matching Habitat gets the first pick! At the end of each Round, count up the points in your Habitat with the most Wyldings and your Habitat with the fewest Wyldings. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins! But, there's a catch: Your Habitat with the most Wyldings at the end of the first Round is ignored at the end of the game. If you want to score with the Wyldings in that Habitat again, you'll need to use your Wyldings' Abilities to move them into a new Habitat. With 5 alternate rule options, Wyld offers the ability to mix and match to fit your table's playstyle! The game is for ages 8+ and takes 20 minutes to play. -description from the publisher
