The ally of young families and where new parents begin their adventure.
To save the savannah animals from the evil poachers, you all work together. Under cover of night, you steal the keys and free the animals from their cages. Hurry before the poachers spot you!
A gentle introduction to cooperative play and strategy: Each key drawn frees different animals, allowing children to discuss the best choice together. They learn to win or lose together.
On their turn, a player draws a token.
• If it's a key: Congratulations! They can free an animal. They can choose to free an animal identical to the one shown on the key token (regardless of the cage color) or to free an animal locked in a cage of the same color as the key (regardless of the animal). The freed animal tile is placed on the board, in the order of the spaces, face up.
• If it's a poacher: Oops, a poacher is listening! The player places this token on a Poacher space on the board. If all the animals are freed before all the Poacher spaces are covered: you win! If all 3 Poacher spaces are covered before all 12 animals are freed, you lose!
