The Atiwa Range is a region of southeastern Ghana in Africa consisting of steep-sided hills with rather flat summits and is home to many an endangered species. In a nearby town, the mayor is causing a stir by giving shelter to a large number of fruit bats in his own garden. He has recognized the great value the animals have in deforested regions: Fruit bats sleep during the day and take off at sunset in search of food, looking for fruit trees miles away. On their way home, they excrete the seeds of the consumed fruit, disseminating them across large areas.
Just like that mayor, in this game, you will develop a community near the Atiwa Range, creating housing for new families and sharing your newly gained knowledge on the importance of fruit bats have for the environment. Acquire new land, manage your animals and resources, and make your community prosper. The player who best balance the needs of their town and the environment wins.
