Holy CARDS, Rules, plays and just ALOT of detail to learn with this game! If you love complicated board games this is the ONE for you! Beautiful design of the playing board-great detail on each card and vast plant and wild life knowledge can be found and learned from each playing card. If your a hombody who loves to spend the pay on ONE game-Buy dont delay!

Fun family game. Not too hard to learn.

Love the game!! It’s very artistic and fun!

This game appears complicated at first because of all of the things you have to get to know about it, but once you’ve played a couple games it is really simple to understand and a lot of fun. Played it over and over again because there are so many cards that you get the enjoyment out of each game (highly replayable and recommended for new-to-strategy gamers).

Love the game the first time I played it with my wife. But a little upset that board game box was dented pretty badly when I got it.

I love board games and I own and play hundreds each year. This one is great. Let me give you some details without boring you, then some pros and cons and my overall rating:GameplayIf you have played Wingspan and Terraforming Mars(TM), then this game will feel very similar. Although I think it is superior to TM and more friendly to new gamers.In EARTH you are in charge of an island and you are attempting to be the player to create the best symbiotic and efficient island. Each turn the active player will choose one of four actions. S/he will perform the main action and all other players will perform the secondary action. Thus, you are always engaged in the game with almost no down time. You continue to take turns until one person has completed a 4×4 grid of cards. You get points in so many different ways that each game is VERY different and unique. TONS of replayability! Most points wins the game.I have played a couple of times with four people and it takes us about 90 minutes to play.PROS- Very thematic.- Beautiful artwork.- Easy to learn and teach.- Super fun (even when you lose... I guess).- Tons of replayability.- Always actively gaming with something to do on everyone's turn.- Player boards and iconography are really good so you can easily understand cards/actions.CONS- Can create a little AP (analysis paralysis) in some people and slow game down a bit.- Not enough opportunity to play the game more... I really honestly don't have much negative to say!Overall Rating:Two thumbs up.9.5 out of 10 BGG RatingI am fully supportive of you purchasing this game... you will enjoy it.

I'm going to keep this simple to not repeat the same things as other reviews, hopefully.Important takeaways: games run around 90 minutes, regardless of the skill level of players, as far as I can tell.This game is BIG. Each player needs about 1.5sqft of space to fit their tableau and board.The team mode is fantastic. We wasted fewer resources, and it allowed us both to specialize so we got even more points. It felt more interactive/social than these types of games tend to, and I think it may be my preferred way to play.This seems especially huge with how intimidating this game appears going into it. I try to avoid super complicated games, and this definitely looked complex, but it's not. I've taught 5 people to play now, and it's one of those things that almost everyone has caught after roughly 20-30 minutes, tops.Reading the ecosystem cards correctly seems to be the number one issue.The growth tokens sometimes don't sit right and fall over. I may end up making my own at some point.Get little containers for the tokens. It'll make your life easier and it's 100% easier.That's it. 1000% recommend. I've played this game 5 times this week, and I will play it another dozen without any hesitation. I knew I loved it 10 minutes into my first game. It's cute and fun and I'm obsessed.

This game is beautiful and fun.
