Imagine an underground cavern teeming with new and undiscovered flora and fauna, never before discovered by humans, the size of Australia....
 
Well that's exactly what has been found in Vivarium. It's 1898 and in Siberia, Edgar Vuntaf (Seismologist) has made this incredible discovery. Now, Explorers, Zoologists, Botanists and Cartographers to name a few are descending on the cavern to identify the various new species inhabiting this continent! Players take on these roles and mission, attempting to fulfil sponsors contracts to find the best of the best, the weirdest of the bunch or the fiercest beast around. Players will collect creatures and plants as well as equipment and future contracts through the use of dominoes and grid references, competing against one another to come out on top!.
 
Will you discover the most species in this new terrain?
