📖 About This Game

The player has one herd of gazelles and tries to drink the water at the place near the Lion square without being dealt the damages. There are carnivores in the Lion square. Players try to minimize damage on their side by strategically placing carnivores on Lion Square. The players place cards one by one in a 3 x 3 area, and scoring, the players get the penalty points from them. The game ends when all nine cards are placed, or the turn begins the turn player who has no cards left in their hand. Then, the three cards on your side will be penalty points. Furthermore, all cards that are "taken" during the game are worth -1 point per two cards. Repeat this until any player reaches 0 points or less from 20 points, and the player with the most points at that point wins.
