Description Edit | History

Xeko is a collectible card game which has four editions to date: Madagascar, Costa Rica, Indonesia, and China. Each edition highlights common and endangered animals from in the region, and creatures from all editions can be mixed together.

In Xeko, each player's objective is to create the strongest, most balanced environment. Players link “species cards” with other species cards, and battle other players in turf wars to win cards. The more endangered the animal, the rarer the card and the higher its point value. When one of the decks is depleted, each player counts the eco points on his or her cards and the one with the most points wins.

Each starter set includes 2 endangered Cards, 10 Rare Cards, 2 Hot spot Cards, 36 Common Cards, 1 Extra Large Play Mat, 2 Learn to Play Guides, and 1 Rule Book. Xeko cards are made from 100-percent recycled materials and a portion of its sales are donated to conservation programs.

It should be noted that it is not necessary to purchase a starter set (around $20 to $30) to play the game. Booster packs (around $4) are just fine for building a deck, and contain a greater variety of cards - including hot spot cards.
