Round 10

The world
97% Complete…
The Drought
Over time, the Drought only got worse. Many Creatures died, unable to find food or water. There was no hope…
Lake A Becomes Dried-up Lakebed A
False Salamander: No extra food from eggs/endosymbiosis in temperate patches.
All creatures: -6 Sustainable population (increases each round)
The Fungus
The Fungus has now completely eradicated.
Fungus Health: 0/9 (-1 per round, -1 per immune system mutation)
The Fungus lowers your sustainable population depending on it’s health (9-7 is 3, 6-4 is 2, 3-1 is 1, 0 is 0)
Immune systems reduce The Fungus’s health, and reduces it’s damage to you by 1.
All creatures: - sustainable population.
