Step into the fascinating world of domestication in The Fox Experiment. Inspired by the groundbreaking research conducted by Demitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut in 1958, this engaging board game allows players to undertake their very own domestication journey.

Begin by selecting curious and friendly foxes from a diverse group. As you breed these charming animals through multiple generations, watch in awe as they develop the adorable physical traits we associate with domesticated pets—think delightful spots, floppy ears, and curly tails. Each turn introduces new challenges and opportunities, as you utilize trait dice that represent your foxes' inherited characteristics.

In each round, you’ll carefully choose a pair of fox parents with desirable traits, roll their trait dice, and strategically arrange the symbols to fill in your pup card. The more traits you complete, the more trait tokens you’ll earn to enhance your personal player board. It’s a true test of strategy, creativity, and luck!

As the game progresses, the previous generation of foxes gives way to a new batch of adorable pups, who will be in line for selection as parents in the following rounds. The excitement builds across five exhilarating rounds. During the final scoring, collect points based on your accomplishments—please patrons for bonus points, complete a set of personal objectives, and earn accolades for having the friendliest fox!

Will you emerge as the ultimate fox breeder, crafting a legacy of love and delightful companions? Gather your friends and family to find out in this captivating game that celebrates both science and fun!
