Arctic Survival is a 2-4 player game of predator and prey that takes place on a ‘tundra’ of 25 cards arranged in a 5x5 grid. One team plays as lemmings, who move beneath the tundra searching for food and water to bring back to their burrow. The other team plays as foxes, who hunt on top of the tundra trying to dig up and catch the lemmings.
The game is designed to be both educational and fun. It can be used to teach about ecosystems, food chains, adaptations, and impacts of climate change. All of which are in the Ontario Curriculum.
Ages: 10+
