Biomes is a game about discovery, exploration, danger, and teamwork. In Biomes players take on the role of an explorer by exploring an enclosed bio-sphere, discovering its secrets, combating the dangers, and continuing to the next bio-sphere. As a video game players will control a tribe of explorers going from bio-sphere to bio-sphere for an as yet undetermined reason with each bio-sphere being a level. As a board game players cooperatively control one member of the tribe each as they explore, quest, and escape the bio-sphere, simulating one level of the video game.
Biomes – Board Game
Biomes is playable as a board game in which players play cooperatively and against the game board. Players harvest resources, explore and quest within the bio-sphere, and eventually escape to win. Danger also lurks in each bio-sphere. If the danger level gets to high the players become overwhelmed and lose the game.
