How It Plays

Area Majority / Influence

You're competing to have the most presence in key areas on the board — think of it like a friendly turf war.

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

About This Game

Two players battle for control over the lush life-sustaining sanctuaries of the desert. By cleverly playing and grouping animal cards, players can show their strength, unlock powers, and use palm tree tokens to alter values. Do you have what it takes to survive in the Desperate Oasis?…
