Description

Everyone knows that DNA stands for “Do Not Amalgamate”. Ignoring this advice, scientists now genetically-engineer ‘Amalgimals’ from existing animal DNA.

WELCOME TO AMALGIMAL ZOO.

In this exciting new card game of gene-splicing and sabotage, you must build the winning collection of combined critters, mingled monsters and blended beasties to make your zoo the most popular in town.

SPLICE! Use six DNA types to create any of 30 unique amalgimals for your zoo, each with their own special abilities.

HUNT! Amalgimals in the wild are fair game. Catch them before your rivals do.

DUEL! Send your beasties to fight with your opponents and steal their amalgimals.

SABOTAGE! Use action cards to cause breakouts and infestations. Abduct, trap, energise and tranquilise and cheat your way to the top!
