Ark Nova | Multiplayer Zoolitaire | Board Game Review

Description provided by ThinkerThemer on YouTube:

Look out Tiger King, there's a new zoo war in town! Compete with your fellow zoo owners to make the most appealing zoo full of exotic animals from around the world. But unlike Tiger King we're in the business of animal conservation, and to win this game you're going to have to balance selling tickets and caring for the animals (& sometimes even release them back into the wild). Can you upgrade your zoo the fastest, and in the right areas to win?

We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
