Life Of The Amazonia

Life of the Amazonia is a bag-building and pattern-building game for 1–4 players in which you restore and populate a thriving jungle ecosystem. You’ll discover wild animals, insects, and plants, placing them across your terrain tiles to create synergies between species — each creature and plant has its own characteristics, and the richest, most ecologically balanced jungle wins.

The bag-building mechanism sits at the heart of every decision. You curate your resource bag to match your strategy, drawing from it to fund placements and actions each round. Layered on top is the pattern-building challenge: animals and plants interact with their neighbours, so placement matters as much as what you choose to place. Getting both layers working in harmony is where the game’s depth lies.

With over 60,000 possible animal card setups and a rich component list — including 74 printed animal meeples, 42 3D trees, and a centrepiece Waterfall of Life — Life of the Amazonia is as visually striking on the table as it is strategically engaging. A full solo mode with Automa is included.
