Earth Board Game

Earth is an open-world engine builder for 1 to 5 players with simple rules and countless strategic possibilities. With its encyclopedic nature and a near-infinite number of tableau combinations, every single game will allow you to discover new synergies and connections, just as our vast and fascinating world allows us to do!

Build a self-supporting ecosystem from the soil upward in Earth. This open-world engine-building game challenges each player to create a four by four tableau filled with flora, terrain, habitats and natural relationships drawn from an extensive collection of unique cards.

An Island, Climate and Ecosystem card establish your starting resources, special abilities and scoring direction before the first hand is drafted. During play, selected actions allow every participant to benefit, but the active player receives the strongest version. Planting, watering, growing and composting can therefore advance several tableaus at once.

Plants can grow vertically using wooden trunks and canopies, while sprouts, soil and compost feed future actions. Fauna objectives and ecosystem scoring reward different spatial patterns and combinations. Solo, multiplayer and team modes are included, with variable setup and hundreds of cards creating many possible engines.
