Keystone: North America

We are excited to bring to your table this beautiful, easy to learn, brain burning strategy game designed by Jeffrey Joyce and Isaac Vega. Keystone: North America seeks to share the deep passion for wildlife and conservation biology held by its co-designer Jeffrey Joyce. His passion for teaching conservation through play and a love of designing games convinced us that Keystone: North America was the perfect game for our first release.
 

Explore the beauty of North America's Wildlife!

In Keystone: North America, you and your friends will take on the role of biologists and work to build an interconnected ecosystem through the careful placement of cards. Use skills, introduce important Keystone animals, and perform wildlife research to maximize your points.

Keystone: North America offers multiple ways to play! Go head-to-head against your friends in multiplayer and see who can build the healthiest ecosystem. Or experience a narrative adventure that will take you on a journey across North America with the Field Journal. This fully illustrated book contains a solo or co-op campaign where you will solve puzzles, learn about amazing animals, and explore the different ecosystems that make up North America.

Introduce important species into your ecosystem

Every North American species has specific habitats where they thrive. When introducing a species to your player board, you'll want to chain these habitats, horizontally or vertically, with other species that share the same habitat. This will create healthier ecosystems which are worth more points when scoring.

Complete Secret Objectives to increase your score

Secret Objectives have seasonal patterns that can add big points to your score at the end of the game. Finding and placing species cards with the required seasons won't be easy, but the extra points you gain often pay off!

Wild cards help to bridge the gaps within your ecosystem

Sometimes finding the perfect species to complete your ecosystem can be difficult. Wild cards can be bought with synergy tokens and help to fill in those gaps to provide alternative openings to help score victory point combos!

Funded and Thankful

In May we debuted Keystone: North America on Kickstarter. The campaign funded in the first 6 hours and the community blew us away with their support. While the campaign was live we were able to donate over 30 copies to schools and educators across North America to help spread the love for nature and conservation. We're humbled and grateful to everyone who supported us during that project and everyone who has joined in since!
