The Fox Experiment Board Game - Breed and Evolve Foxes! Strategy Game for Kids and Adults, 10+, 1-4 Players, 60 Minute Playtime

In 1958, Demitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut embarked on a groundbreaking experiment on domestication. From a large group of foxes, they selected the ones that reacted to humans with more curiosity and less aggression. With each passing generation, the researchers carefully chose the friendliest pups to become parents, aiming to recreate the process that led to domestication thousands of years ago.

In "The Fox Experiment," players have the opportunity to breed their own domesticated foxes throughout the game. Each round represents a breeding generation, and players must select a pair of fox parents to breed. They will then take dice according to the traits they possess and roll them, attempting to create whole trait symbols to mark on their pup cards. These pups then go on to become parents in the next round, allowing players to continue the cycle of fox domestication.

The strategic challenge lies in the careful selection of parent foxes, the dice-rolling to create desirable pups, and the strategic completion of studies and the pleasing of sponsors to score points and ultimately win the game.

The game experience is divided into four distinct phases, each with its own unique challenges and opportunities. From the selection of foxes to the research phase, players must carefully consider their foxes' traits and attributes to maximize their chances of success.

To further enhance their strategy, players can unlock upgrades on their player mats, allowing them to breed more pups, roll additional friendly dice, draw study cards, and gain sponsor bonuses, all of which contribute to the ultimate evolution of their foxes.

The competitive aspect of "The Fox Experiment" lies in the race to create the friendliest foxes and earn rewards, while simultaneously aiming for end-game scoring, science cards, and valuable trait tokens. Players must navigate the delicate balance between collaboration and competition to emerge victorious.

Through this captivating game, players are immersed in a world where they nurture and evolve their own domesticated foxes, all while exploring the fascinating history and science behind the domestication process. "The Fox Experiment" offers a unique and engaging experience that combines strategic gameplay with the allure of these fascinating creatures.
