Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.43/day in the week to Jul 31 → 0.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About

Design a modern zoo to help animals thrive as you support conservation projects around the world.

Since its release in 2021, tabletop board game Ark Nova from designer Mathias Wigge has received numerous awards around the world. Now a new digital adaptation brings the strategy and science of the beloved board game to players everywhere!

In Ark Nova, you will plan and design a modern, scientifically managed zoo. With the ultimate goal of owning the most successful zoological establishment, you will build enclosures, accommodate animals, and support conservation projects all over the world. Specialists and unique buildings will help you in achieving this goal.
At the heart of Ark Nova are 255 cards featuring animals, specialists, unique enclosures, and conservation projects, each with a particular ability. Use them to increase the appeal and scientific reputation of your zoo and to collect conservation points. Each player has a set of action cards, which you will use and upgrade to carry out your plans.
Each player has a set of five action cards to manage their gameplay, and the power of an action is determined by the slot the card currently occupies. The cards are:
BUILD: Allows you to build standard or special enclosures, kiosks, and pavilions.
ANIMALS: Allows you to accommodate animals in your zoo.
CARDS: Allows you to gain new zoo cards (animals, sponsors, and conservation project cards).
ASSOCIATION: Allows your association workers to carry out different tasks.
SPONSORS: Allows you to play a sponsor card in your zoo or to raise money.
With high replayability and rich components, Ark Nova provides a remarkable gaming experience that will bring the game to the table again and again.

there are multiple paths to victory and -- along the way -- you learn a lot about animals from around the world, including their habitats and environmental requirements. This is a top-10, all-time game that can be played over and over without running into the same situations. The volume of cards, even before expansions, ensures a long 'usage' period. Have been playing since it was released and still love it!
Very very good game
It's good
The special exhibits and challenges are a lot of fun. I do hope they add in the expansions eventually, and it seems hard to get a regular online game going but the AI is at least fun to play against.
Its fun on the Board, its fun here. Only the expansion is missing.
De nuevo, la empresa Dire Wolf nos ha traído con pasión y excelente diseño, un juego imperdible. Al jugarlo sientes la misma exquisita interacción que con el juego de mesa. Esto se ha logrado porque el diseño del juego, la arquitectura, los gráficos (tipografías, detalles) están muy bien hechos. Además, posee un motor de rendimiento muy óptimo para disfrutar del juego sin complicaciones. Super recomendado. Muchas gracias por seguirnos trayendo juegos de tanta calidad.
