  • Description

    In 1958, Demitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut began an experiment on domestication. From a large group of foxes, they selected those that reacted more curiously and less aggressively towards humans. Each generation, only the friendliest pups were chosen as parents. The experiment made remarkable progress, and soon the foxes began to exhibit physical traits such as spots, floppy ears, and curly tails. Today, the experiment continues to greatly enhance our understanding of domestication.

    In "The Fox Experiment," you will breed your own domesticated foxes. Each round, you select a pair of fox parents with specific traits. You roll dice to create complete trait symbols on your pup cards. Based on the number of traits you mark, you receive trait markers to upgrade your personal game board.

    At the end of each round, the previous generation of foxes is removed, and the new pups move to the kennel, becoming candidates for the next generation. The game ends after 5 rounds, and points are awarded for fulfilling sponsors, completed studies, winning the award for the friendliest fox, upgrades on your personal board, and extra markers. The player with the most points wins!
