EcoLogic: Europe is a card-driven ecosystem builder based on real relationships among European plants, fungi, and animals. Players draft species into habitat boards, trace feeding requirements through a growing food web, and manage biomass, remains, weather, and habitat capacity. A viable ecosystem must balance producers, consumers, and decomposers rather than simply collect valuable cards. Species and habitat diversity drive scoring, while the solo system uses dedicated dice to pressure the same ecological puzzle.
