Explorer-naturalists compete to arrange colorful beetles in this tile-laying game.
It is 1894. A ship carrying you and other explorer-naturalists has landed on the shores of Coleopterra—a newly discovered island in the Pacific Ocean. Untouched by humans, Coleopterra is home to countless undiscovered species, including a marvelous array of strange and mesmerizing beetles.
You have been sent here in the pursuit of science. Search the island for new species of beetles, then use your powers of observation to classify the beetle specimens into groups. The explorer who draws the most meaningful connections will earn the respect of the scientific community and go down in history for their discoveries!
