Description

On this forgotten island in a tiny corner of the ocean the animals are hungry! Your goal is to influence the wildlife - and arrange their meals - so there is only one animal left!

Food Chain Island is the next Button Shy Wallet Game, and the first in the simply solo series. These are games that are one player only, light on rules, and big on replayability.

In this game, you will take as many turns as possible with a goal of only having one land animal card left on the table after starting with a grid of 16. On each turn, you must move one animal to eat another smaller, adjacent animal. If you cannot move an animal to eat another, the game ends.
