New islands have emerged from the ocean and as scientists you must do the research into the new developing ecosystems that are present there. Watch the islands on the board grow in three dimensions as you learn more about them, and add colorful plants and animals to each island as you explore their ecosystems.

In each round of Emerge, you earn points by rolling your dice and using them to collect research and make discoveries. All players start with the same research board, but throughout the game you can customize your own board and change what you research. After eight rounds, you score points based on how prosperous and biodiverse your islands are, as well as various research objectives. Whoever has the most points wins!
