## What is Trophic Cards?

The food chain has entered the chat.

Trophic is a tactical card duel built from real ecology. Choose a species, commit it face-down, then reveal both cards and discover who eats whom. Usually the higher trophic level wins—but nature rarely reads the rulebook.

A starfish can make short work of a snail. A decomposer can topple an apex predator. Venom may turn victory into mutual regret. If two species meet at the same level, their habitat, adaptations and the changing biome settle the argument.

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Challenge the computer at Cub, Ranger or Apex difficulty
• Trek through a seven-stage Expedition with two lives and increasingly cunning rivals
• Share one device in Pass & Play
• Use Game Center for saved turn-based friend matches or quick live games
• Explore eight ecosystem decks, from reef and wetland to savanna, polar sea and abyss

LEARN WITHOUT A LECTURE
Explore scientific names, habitats, diets, trophic roles, biological classification and memorable field notes. Flip a card to inspect it, compare ecological traits and meet related organisms.

Your Codex grows as species are revealed. Search discoveries by name or classification, filter marine and terrestrial life, and trace energy from food to consumer in interactive biome food webs. There are 192 playable species at launch, each presented with locally bundled natural-history artwork.

OUTSMART THE ECOSYSTEM
Build around Ambush, Migratory, Pack, Keystone, Scavenger, Venomous and other adaptations. Spend field energy to draw or roam to a new biome. Fall behind and nature lends a claw: comeback powers include Mimicry, Regrowth, Spring Bloom and the magnificently alarming Venom Gland.

Capture enough value to claim the ecosystem. Learn something. Try not to be eaten.

No ads. No in-app purchases. Online play requires Game Center.
