Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- action card types — There are two types of action cards: team actions for field work and paleontologist actions for labs.
- Action Points — Each card tells you how many action points you have to distribute across six different team actions.
- Card-driven action slots — On your turn you play a card to your left-most available action slot, pay the cost if any, and take actions.
- end-of-round and reputation — After rounds two and four, patron reputation is gained and amplified by how many patron shelves are occupied; players pass when out of actions or money.
- loyalty tracks — Players loyally track Marsh (red) or Cope (blue); publishing papers and earning bones increases loyalty to a Patron.
- paleontologist actions — Paleontologist actions involve labs-related activities such as publishing papers, debunking, or challenging a published paper and claiming awards.
- prototype status — Components and rules are described as prototype and not final.
- publication and patron bonuses — Publishing a paper uses bones and a numbered book to increase loyalty with a Patron; more bones increases loyalty.
- round structure — The game runs in four rounds; after all players pass, the round ends and a new one begins; after four rounds the game ends.
- shared incentive — A shared incentive mechanic that adds a layer of cooperation or competition for points.
- species cards — Species cards are used to publish papers and can be used for team or paleontologist actions; they are tucked under the top of your player board for bonuses.
- Team actions — Team actions include digging bones, gaining species cards, and building camps; actions determine depth and movement.
- upgrading and camps — Camps can be upgraded to allow longer movement and more location actions.
