Ark Nova: Zoo Map Pack 1 - Game Accessory Pack, Expand Your Collection, All New Mechanics and Layouts to Explore

The two maps that are added are a step beyond the normal base maps in terms of creativity and rule bending, which is fun for advanced players. There are also two copies of each map so you can have two people play them at the same time as well

Great purchase. Definitely worth the buy.

Yes it is hard to figure everything out. You tube videos were so helpful in the beginning. The Sea animal exspansion really adds to the whole game.

I approve of more variety for a game like Ark Nova, but if these two new maps were going to be stronger than the default maps (they are), then four new maps should have been provided for balance. Instead, only two are provided. Both are clever and thoughtful, but both are slightly more powerful than the default maps. As a result, they are mostly useful either for balancing the game out for stronger players (with default maps) versus weaker players (these maps) or for 2P Ark Nova games.And like most "promo" style products, the value for money just isn't there. So, it's basically a product for completionists or Ark Nova nerds like myself. ;-)

This pack give you new mechanics with new maps, but there are not a lot of them.

Expanding game play.

Although the images show two maps, I thought I was getting four, since all other Ark Nova maps are double-sided. These are double-sided too, but identical. So you only get two new maps, printed on very thin cardboard. They would be OK for half the price, but at this price, I felt they were expensive.

Such a great game
