In Prehistories, players are the leader of a tribe. They decide which members go hunting and what prey they’re looking for. To guide them, the Elders of the tribe have given them missions which must be painted on the walls of their caves.

Prehistories is a game where players bid simultaneously (and secretly) to decide who hunts where. The more hunters you have, the bigger the game, but the slower you are. The fastest player goes first but they have few hunters to hunt. The slower can hunt what they want but all the preys might be already gone.

In a second phase, players will paint their cave with animal tiles collected during the hunting phase and place them in their 3D cave to best fulfill the wishes of the Elders.

First player to discard their 8 Totem tokens on the wishes wins the game.
