Shot into space and long since forgotten, six monkey tribes fiercely compete to advance their civilizations...
Well, "civilizations" might be too strong a word for it -- most of the tribes are still struggling with basic grooming. But they fiercely compete nonetheless.
Fortunately you, the players, have better uses for your time. Leaving aside your squabbling tribemates, you've learned how to repair the ships that stranded everyone on the moon in the first place.
But who do you let on board? Some tribes do not get along, some monkeys wield greater influence than others and some tribes simply can't stand the sight of you. The player who brings freedom to the most revered and influential monkeys will surely be a hero back on Earth...
Each turn, you play one Civilization Card to teach one monkey tribe a useful skill -- badminton, how to drive a steamroller, chainsaw operation, and so on -- and the grateful tribe rewards you with favor coins. However, each tribe has an enemy tribe who becomes unhappy when you help out its rival; that tribe will demand coins from you.
As coins come and go from each player, monkeys come up for auction. Players use their favor coins as money to bid for these monkeys and place them on their spaceships back to Earth. At the end of the game, the player who has freed the most monkeys from the most learned tribes wins.
