"EcoFluxx was another game sent to me by Looney Labs. I quite enjoyed this nature themed version of Fluxx. One thing I noticed right away when playing the game is that the color borders on the cards aren't solid colors. They actually have small pictures in them, leafs for keepers, what I believe is flowers or berries for goals, stars for new rules, rain drops for actions, and cracks for creepers. The effect is very subtle but adds a bit of individuality to this version of Fluxx.
The game plays like any standard version of Fluxx but there are some things that make it stand out. For one thing is the 11 "eating goals." These are goals where the player that has one animal keeper and if someone else has a specific animal keeper, the first player wins because his keeper eats the other person's keeper. For example "Snakes Eat Mice" the player with the keeper "Snakes" wins if someone else has the keeper "Mice."
Another thing to point out is this version of Fluxx does not have as many Creepers as other versions like Zombie Fluxx or Martian Fluxx, but in this version nobody can win if there is a creeper on the table. I enjoyed this difference in the way they handled creepers in this game. It made things more interesting.
I enjoyed this card game very much and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for another version of Fluxx to play or for someone looking for a fun way to teach about nature to children.
