Paleo is a cooperative board game set in the Stone Age, where players represent a tribe of prehistoric humans. The objective of the game is to complete a cave painting without succumbing to the struggle for survival. The game is divided into day and night. During the day, you explore the surroundings, craft tools and items, face dangers, or recruit new members for your tribe. At night, however, you feed your tribe and resolve mission cards. Paleo includes 10 modules with varying difficulty levels. It is typically played with two modules, each having its own rules and additional cards compared to the base modules. It is also possible to mix the modules for customization.
