In Miller Zoo players will have the opportunity to work together to try
to successfully run their own zoo! A round consists of four phases, with there being a dawn, morning, afternoon, and evening phase. Most of the gameplay will
take place during the afternoon phase as players can freely play their resource
cards in any order. Cards can be used to move, solve problems, or receive
animals into the zoo. The goal of the game is to effectively take care of the animals
and receive new animals in without running out of resource cards. The different
challenges and problems that arise will keep players on their toes in this cooperative
game. Great fun for the whole family! 1-6 players and the play time will take
around 30 minutes.
