Description provided by Fun With Boxes on YouTube:

Welcome to Fun with Boxes, Episode 292: How to play Zoology a wonderful new Board Game from Ice Makes, Designed by Jeffrey CCH (Terrorscape) that is great fun for people of all ages! In this video I take a look at the games components, how to setup and How to Play the game, including a review. The great Encyclopaedia Zoologica has burst open, and every creature from alpacas to platypuses are making a dash for it! Your team of keen zoologists must spring into action to ask the right questions, discuss your guesses and really put your animal knowledge to the test. Return each animal to its rightful place in the encyclopaedia… before the Age of Discovery becomes the Age of Chaos! In Zoology, each player gets an animal card that only others can see. Through comparative questions about characteristics, appearances and behaviour, each player tries to piece together clues about their animal’s secret identity. Success needs both analytical thinking and tricky communication. The game includes: Four extra modules, each introducing six more animals from different continents to keep things interesting and make the game harder Two game modes: competitive (race to identify your animal first) and co-operative (work together to identify everyone’s animal before turns run out) Fun facts about all forty animals I hope you enjoy Take care - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Interested in Terrorscape?

About Zoology, from BoardGameGeek:

When the pages of the Great Encyclopedia Zoologica burst open, the wild is unleashed and only sharp minds can restore order. The Great Encyclopedia Zoologica has cracked, scattering creatures from alpacas to platypuses into a chaotic world where instincts run wild and facts matter more than ever. In Zoology, you become a team of curious and quick-witted zoologists, trying to identify animals based on clues and characteristics before the Age of Discovery slips into an Age of Chaos. Zoology is a 2-6 player deduction game where you become zoologists identifying animals scattered from the Great Encyclopedia Zoologica. Players secretly receive an animal card (visible only to others) and must deduce their own identity by asking comparative questions about characteristics, appearance, and behavior. The game blends analytical thinking and clever communication into a lively 15-30 minute puzzle. Play competitively to identify your animal first, or co-operatively to identify all animals within a turn limit. Optional modules and fun facts add variety to this social deduction challenge. -description from the publisher
