Biome Builder Game Mechanics and Strategies

Biome Builder is an educational card game that teaches kids about ecological environments, species diversity, and food chains. Players create diverse food chains from four unique habitats: the Amazon rainforest, the Pacific Ocean, the American prairie, and the Sahara Desert. The game involves setting up biomes, building stacks of cards representing different species, and using special effect cards to influence gameplay. The objective is to score points by completing stacks and using strategic actions. The game ends when all cards are drawn, and the player with the highest score wins.
