Description

If Mama Ain't Happy... ...Ain't Nobody Happy.

Tired of the trouble she’s had with Mankind, Mother Earth has decided to rid herself of the pesky critters by any means: Hurricanes, Earthquakes, Flurries… Whatever It Takes!

But don’t write off humanity just yet. They react with Fear, Denial – even Recycling! You never know what they’ll come up with next!

Who Said Extinction Can't Be Fun?

Each player starts with a population of 100 troublesome humans. The first player to reduce their population of the vexing creatures to zero by playing Disaster cards against themselves wins.

But wait, your opponents can counter the effects of your Disasters by playing Reaction cards of their own. If your human population gets out of control and exceeds 200, you’re out of the game.
