Metazooa Game Rules
Same Mystery Animal for everyone that day. Submit recognized animal names. Each miss joins the phylogenetic tree. Shared phylum or a broad clade is still cold; shared order or family is useful; shared genus is almost done. Taxon panels can add descriptions and pictures of groups you uncover. Exact animal wins.
- Name Metazooa’s Mystery Animal within 20 guesses.
- Wrong guesses grow a tree of shared taxonomic ranks.
- Deeper ranks mean warmer guesses.
- This is the animal game; Metaflora is the plant counterpart.
