• The game can be played in groups of 2 to 6 players, with multiple modes of play.

Two game formats:

ECOTOPIA STACK - How to Play

ECOTOPIA STACK is for 2–6 players. Each player aims to collect 6 cards of the same Mission LiFE Theme to win. Shuffle the deck, give 6 cards to each player, and keep the rest face down. On your turn, pick a card from the deck or the face-up pile, keep the one you need, and pass another to the next player. Use the Mascot Card as a wild card to complete any missing Action Card (2–6). The first player to collect all 6 cards wins and reads aloud the LiFE Actions on their cards. Always keep 6 cards in hand. This game makes learning Mission LiFE themes fun and interactive.

ECOTOPIA SERIES - How to Play

ECOTOPIA SERIES is for 2, 3, or 6 players. Shuffle the cards and distribute them equally among players. Each player starts by placing a Master Card (on which the number 1 is written) of any LiFE Theme on the table. Similarly, the next player, so all 7 Master Cards are open. Players then take turns placing the Action Cards (2–6) in sequential order for each theme. The first player to exhaust all their cards wins and reads aloud the LiFE Actions on their cards. The Mascot Cards are not used in this game. Arrange cards carefully from 1 to 6 to complete each theme. This game encourages sequential learning and teamwork while making Mission LiFE themes fun and interactive.

This initiative will make Mission LiFE themes fun and interactive for students, while also spreading strong environmental messages through play.
