Description

An evolution in dexterity games, featuring all-new artwork by designer Yves Tourigny.

Flicking Finches is a "delightful dexterity game for the whole flock". In the game, players can "evolve" their finch discs by changing their characteristics, such as beak size, body size, or body markings. The players then flick their finches across the playmat as close as possible to the Darwin figure, who awards them seeds based on the characteristics he's currently studying. After sketching a finch, Charlie moves to the next island in the Galapagos, with the finches giving chase. The player with the most seeds when Darwin's sketchbook is filled wins the game!
