In Savanna Ten, players compete to secure their hold on the Savanna. Players receive decks of animal tiles with different influence values, and take turns placing one of them on the board. All tiles have a Lion on the back, and can be placed both face up and face down.
Points are earned by completing lines of 3 or 4 animals of any ownership. The scoring is carried out as soon as each line is completed, and the way it's resolved depends on the total influence value of the line:
If it's less than 10, the player with most influence scores 2 points.
If it's more than 10, the player with least influence scores 1 point.
If it's exactly 10, the player who completed the line scores 3 points.
The game ends when the board is completely filled, and the player with the highest score wins the game. The ties are broken by the lowest number of placed Lions.
