Watch “How to Play Cryptic Nature,” a how-to-play guide for Cryptic Nature from Merlin's Manor on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Merlin's Manor on YouTube:
In this video, I teach how to play Cryptic Nature multiplayer (which plays very similarly solo). In a future video, I plan to go over the solo mode, but it will not be a full teach, since most of how you play will be the same. If you are interested in learning how to play solo, this would be a good place to start. And, of course, this video teaches how to play multiplayer.

About Cryptic Nature, from BoardGameGeek:
In this game you will deal with cryptozoology, search for strange creatures and prove their existence. In this world, they really exist, they just perfectly hide from human eyes. Your task is not only to find these unique species of animals, but also to provide them with a safe habitat - for some creatures, various cities are ready to provide such places, for the rest you are building a unique reserve.
Cryptic Nature is a Euro connoisseur game for 2-4 players with a game duration of 60-90 minutes. It combines Point to Point Movement and Dice Rolling elements. The winner is the player who can track down and capture the most cryptids and present them to the public in the reserve.
