ON YOUR TURN
Winner of the Toy Industry Association’s
Game of the Year award three years in a row!
Everyone makes a guess!
1
All players place their selection
tokens on the resource they think
will come up on the resource die.
Lucky Day
If you land on this space, you get to use the lucky token,
giving you two guesses on every turn until the next
player lands on a Lucky Day.
Blue Skies or Stormy Weather
If you land on one of these spaces, draw a card,
read it aloud, and follow the instructions.
You roll both dice
2
Move clockwise the number of
spaces you rolled on the mover die.
Each player who correctly guessed
the roll of the resource die gets one
matching resource card.
ON THE BOARD
Trading Post
If you land on this space, you can choose to trade your
food, animal, or shelter cards for other cards or for habitats.
• Trade in enough resource cards to choose the
perfect habitat to add to your world!
• You can trade your resource cards up or
down — exchanging an animal card for three foods,
or three foods for an animal, for instance.
• You may make as many trades as you like during
each visit to the Trading Post.
Team Up
If you land on this space, roll the resource die, then have
the other players each take a turn rolling it. Each time a
player matches your roll, you both get one of what
you rolled.
Roll Again
If you land on this space, you get to take another turn!
HOW TO WIN
Be the first player to fill your zoo
with four habitats. Once you have
all four, declare the name of your
zoo and announce your Opening
Day — you’ve won!
