Kavango Preview / Review by Board Game Happy

About Kavango, from BoardGameGeek:

Travel to the vast wildernesses of Southern Africa and step into the role of a Conservation Expert. Embark on a re-wilding journey as you transform your own unique landscape into a thriving nature reserve. Over three fast-paced rounds of simultaneous turns and card drafting, you will build a flourishing ecosystem. As you grow your nature reserve, you must complete research tasks to earn money to invest in protection and provide a haven for vulnerable and endangered animals. As the game progresses, your choices become harder and your strategy more complex as you aim to build the highest scoring nature reserve. Created by Matt and Zara, while working on conservation in Botswana, Kavango is deeply thematic and is thoughtfully designed to be a modern and realistic view of conservation in southern Africa. With 160 unique species cards, 45 research cards, 10 conservation experts and 5 landscape boards, there is huge variability to reflect the incredible biodiversity of Kavango. -description from the publisher Admin note: The German edition from Schmidt Spiele is for 1-4 players instead of 1-5.
