The game that saves endangered sea turtle hatchlings? Too Many Turtles is a tactical board card game in which two players compete over the course of up to 3 rounds to create the most valuable army of turtles that they can. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins and the game goes to the first player to win 2 out of 3 rounds. In our base set, you will find two pre-built decks of cards made to play against each other. On one side, you have Turtron: The Legendary Defender, a giant robotic turtle from outer space that has come to earth. He and his army of hatchlings are trying to combat the devastating effects mankind is having on turtles and the environment using a variety of effect cards like Shell Restoration and Environmental Clean Up.
Now a little info about real world turtle issues. In addition to being our nonprofit partner, SEE Turtles is doing some truly amazing work to help protect and restore sea turtle populations in Latin America. Brad Nahill, co-founder and President, has been overseeing SEE Turtles programs since 2008, when the organization was founded. In addition to errant fishing policies, the turtle shell trade has come into the spotlight of issues that SEE Turtles is aiming to increase awareness. Turtles are often hunted in rural and undeveloped areas as a source of food, with their shells and other bones being used to make tools or jewelry. The turtle shell trade is still a very prominent market in Central and South America, as well as much of Asia.
SEE Turtles is thrilled to be partnering with Too Many Turtles to help save endangered sea turtles around the world. Our organizational focus is helping community organizations protect important nesting beaches, and helping protect hatchlings from poachers and predators. The actual real world impact of every dollar donated to SEE Turtles, translates to saving at least 10 baby sea turtles.Discover extra info at Save the Turtles Card Game.
And now, without further ado, the stars of our show. Literally! Admit it, you’re here for the turtles. Don’t worry, so are we. Our turtles are split into three distinct types of turtles. Turtles are classified as either Land, Ocean, or Freshwater Turtles. Decks are built around a specific type of turtle so match your turtles up with the proper biome for an easy boost to your turtles HP. You may move and summon a turtle every turn, and on occasion, you might find yourself in a position to summon more than one turtle in the same turn. Keep an eye out for specific turtle effects so you know what your turtles can do!
