Cascadia Junior

Players draft habitat tiles and place them on a personal map to build connected corridors of mountains, wetlands, prairies, rivers, and forests. Matching adjacent habitats scores points and creating groups of three identical wildlife icons on connected tiles earns wildlife sighting tokens. Players place sighting tokens on a panorama board to assemble a personal picture of the wilderness and reveal conifer cone points at the end of the game. The game teaches pattern building, set collection, and basic addition through simple tile-drafting and placement; an optional advanced mode adds more complex wildlife-shape requirements for older or more experienced children.
