{"product_id":"bios-megafauna-2nd-edition","title":"Bios: Megafauna 2nd Edition","description":"\u003cstrong\u003e2nd Edition 2017\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBios: Megafauna\u003c\/strong\u003e starts where the predecessor game Bios: Genesis left off, with the invasion of the land on the daybreak of the Phanerozoic eon. Starting as either a plant, mollusk, insect, or vertebral skeletal type, your flapping, paddling, and squawking carnivores and herbivores make a beachhead on one of the drifting continental plates in the Cambrian, Their struggle for terrestrial dominance may eventually include language-based consciousness. Although this achievement elevated a certain mammal species to notoriety, in your game things may occur differently.\u003cbr\u003eThis second edition of Bios: Megafauna is an evolutionary descendant of American Megafauna but as a part of the Bios series of games it is linked to the game Bios: Genesis. It plays well independently but if you have both games you can let the end state of a game of Bios: Genesis affect the starting state of a game of Bios: Megafauna. A successor game, called Bios: Origins (which would be a descendant of Origin), is planned to cover the events of the Quaternary period including the rise of ideas and technology.\u003cu\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/u\u003e 1-4\u003cu\u003eSuggested Ages:\u003c\/u\u003e 12 and up\u003cu\u003eLanguage(s)\u003c\/u\u003e : English\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/221769\/bios-megafauna-second-edition\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Link to BGG.com\" src=\"https:\/\/meeplescorner.co.uk\/image\/data\/BGG_logo.jpg\" style=\"width: 60px;height: 45px\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Sierra Madre Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52050520408413,"sku":"SPD-SMG-2017-02","price":71.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/2442\/6589\/files\/biosmegafauna2_611cfbab-6b51-4ff4-a456-d1afec7716b1.jpg?v=1769676080","url":"https:\/\/meeplescorner.net\/products\/bios-megafauna-2nd-edition","provider":"Meeples Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
