Stone Age clan leaders race to grow their people by mastering new hunting and fire-making technologies and spreading into richer hunting grounds.

Gameplay

Draft technology cards and expand your clan onto the modular map to secure hunting areas that feed you and let your clan grow, aiming to be first to 13 members. The pressure is choosing when to invest in better tech versus grabbing territory before opponents make it costly or unreachable.
