Breed Foxes for the Best Traits
In 1958, Dmitri Belyaev and Lyudmila Trut started a risky experiment on animal domestication. Form a large group of Russian silver foxes, they selected the ones that showed the most interest in humans. In each generation, they selected only the friendliest pups to become parents - hoping to recreate the process that originally led to the domestication of dogs thousands of years ago.
In The Fox Experiment, you'll breed your own domesticated foxes over the course of the game. Each round represents one breeding generation, in which players will select a pair of fox parents and roll dice to make their pups, who may then become parents in the next generation. The right foxes will help you finish studies and please your patrons to score points and win the game!
