Description

Apex is a deck-building game, played solo or with up to 5 friends. You play as a prehistoric predator competing for territory and resources against other predators. Each playable species has a unique deck to master. Each deck has different strengths, weaknesses, and strategies—creating a varied and constantly evolving experience.

Your species must overcome a very brutal environment including harsh climate changes, disease, attacks from predators, grievous wounds, infections, and deadly prey. The game incorporates many dinosaurs that behave in their own distinct way. The goal of the game is to endure the environment, build up the population and evolve your species, and become the apex predator.

Base Game includes:

  • 525 base cards + 20 Card Dividers
  • 24 inch x 16 inch Hunting Grounds game board – folded
  • Six 16 inch x 9 inch Nesting Grounds mats – folded
  • 46-page Rulebook
  • Foam Blocks to protect cards and fill empty spaces

    Includes 7 Playable Base Apex Decks:

  • Acrocanthosaurus
  • Carnotaurus
  • Giganotosaurus
  • Spinosaurus
  • Tyrannosaurus
  • Utahraptor
  • Velociraptor

    Plus ALL Available Expansion Decks with Dividers:

  • Stomping Grounds
  • Suchomimus
  • Saurophaganax
  • Therizinosaurus
  • Megalodon
  • Exotic Predators – Quetzalcoatlus & Sarcosuchus
  • The Promethean Wars
  • The Stomping Dead

    These 1041 cards includes diverse animals to hunt, dangerous carnivores, opposing Boss cards with Minions (acts as artificial players for solo play), environmental effects, genetic evolution types, and grievous wound types.

    Note to fans:

    The dinosaurs and events in Apex are not 100% based on fact. Apex is a mix of old and new dinosaur culture and some things were just changed to enjoy the game more. Please forgive any inaccuracies you find in Apex and it is not designed to educate.
