It feels very limited in scope.

For an actual ISSUE, picking up a card can place a tile in that location, if it is an open spot, but now to my opinion:

This game could be about ANYTHING. Chemicals, random unknown energies, abstract shapes, but it is about animals.

Animals that dont interact, shapes that are just placed to give you points to get more spaces to place more shapes to buy more packs to place ...... it just loops and thats it. Eventually you loose.


This may be interesting for others, but it feels to me like a game that could be about ANYTHING, instead of "arrange tiles you put to make an ecosystem for animals", while named in a way that implies some dynamic biology happening

You do not make an ecosystem, you place shapes in spaces you place. Nothing happens beyond that, so I am left, bouncing animals on my screen.

The game is way too easy and there are not enough animals. Also I think there should be a reward for when you get all animals or when you collect 10 of the same animal. Hope this game contenues to get worked on cuz I really enjoy it

Hi! Thanks for playing & for the feedback. We will add more depth & variations in the coming updates. Hope you'll continue to enjoy the game :D

How to move when I fill the map lol

nvm found it by myself

Took me a minute to figure out the darker colours were two levels of the same tile haha ^_^'

Thank you so much for playing! We realised that it's difficult for new players to figure it out straight away. We'll definitely improve the QoL on the next iteration hahaha!

Hey, this is really nice and relaxing!

I just found a small little bug: when you clikc on the SHOP button on the top right corner, it also counts as a click on the board game, which could lead to misplace a tile. But as a regular jammer, I know this is nothing too harsh since the game is relaxing!

Thank you for the feedback, and it's nice that you enjoy it. We will make sure to fix it by the next update.

I'm in love with the game! Stylish, cool design, interesting to collect tiles, discover new animals. Your team is cool!

Thanks for the kind words!

Hi! It was pretty hard for me to switch between the shop and the glossary due to the small tabs and letters. Just wanted to let you know! :)

Thank you for playing & for the feedback! Yes we're planning to fix that on the next iteration! :)

Thanks!
