This set is associated with the Vancouver Nerd Nite organization, and highlights 9 organisms that were suggested during one of their events. Specifically, organisms were solicited based on “coolness” and/or “peculiarity.” Note that this is an expansion deck and cannot be played on its own.
Note the game has been play tested for kids 7 and up.
Play the ecosystem game, collect the cards, and contribute to the project!

PHYLO is a project that began as a reaction to the following nugget of information: Kids know more about Pokemon creatures than they do about real creatures.
PHYLO is also: (1) a card game that makes use of the wonderful, complex, and inspiring things that inform the notion of biodiversity; (2) an exercise in crowd sourcing, open access, and open game development; and (3) FREAKIN’ AWESOME!
