Continental biome is the simplest biome. The main thing is to place Rivers and Lakes correctly.




Mountains (gray cells) cannot be watered, so the maximum number of harmony points will depend on their number.



Lakes are not placed next to each other, since there are no bonuses from this, but on the contrary, you will get fewer Habitat cells around:



The river should not have any sharp turns so that the maximum number of Habitats can be placed around it:




Requirement: the presence of a River of 18 cells.

Placement: on the River.

Description: Increases the Harmony Point bonus by +1 for each Lake or River square and +2 for each Habitat square next to a Lake or River.



Requirement: 15 Habitats of 12 squares each.

Placement: Any free square.

Description: Unlocks the Natural Wonders Shop.

Map size: 19 cells * 7 islands = 133 cells.

On a small map you won't be able to make a Habitat of 12 cells with 3 different animals. Also, Rivers are not available here.

Ideal placement

• 11 Habitats in 12 cells with 3 identical animals (924 harmony)
  
• 1 Lake (7 harmony)
  
• Watering the land (max 133 harmony)

Total: 1,064 harmony



Map size: 19 cells * 11 islands = 209 cells.

When expanding the territory, it is necessary to create a path as quickly as possible to place a River of 18 cells, which will allow you to get a Watermill. We make the rest of the Rivers 3 cells in size, this will allow you to get the most harmony points.

The maximum number of harmony points depends on how many cards with Lakes and Rivers are given.

Map size: 19 cells * 16 islands = 304 cells.

When expanding the territory, it is necessary to create a path as quickly as possible to place a River of 18 cells, which will allow you to get a Watermill. We make the rest of the Rivers 3 cells in size, this will allow you to get the most harmony points.

The maximum number of harmony points depends on how many cards with Lakes are given.

The second task is to create 15 Habitats in 12 cells to get a Keeper's Hut. The main difficulty is that you need to correctly place the Habitats in 12 cells so that later there will be an opportunity to combine Habitats under a Natural Wonder into one Habitat. To do this, place identical Habitats next to each other, leaving one free cell so that you can later combine them. Try not to do this at the edge of the island or next to the River, so that in the absence of the necessary cards, you can occupy this cell with a Lake.

I suggest doing the following: first use the Natural Wonder on one 12-cell Habitat, then from the second Habitat from the middle, using the return card, return the element and place it in the previously left free cell, thus getting a 24-cell Habitat. In the vacant space, place a Lake or transfer an element from another Habitat.

Since the total number of cards for creating Habitats is unknown, you need to act gradually and carefully. Sometimes you will need to combine 2-3 or even more Habitats of the same type. In another case, it is more profitable to make two 12-cell Habitats under the Natural Wonder. Everything depends on the number of cards of the same type.

At the very end, when all the Habitats are placed, under the Natural Wonder, multiples of 12 cells, Lakes and Rivers. We occupy the free space with elements to expand the Habitats under the Natural Wonder. Instead of Rivers in 3 cells, you can simply expand the Habitat under the Natural Wonder even more, since the amount of harmony per cell is the same for both.

Savanna biome is a complex biome. It is necessary not only to correctly place Rivers and Lakes, but also to consider the color of the grass and prepare places for placing Natural Wonders in advance.

Placing Lakes next to each other increases the bonus to harmony points for each adjacent Habitat:

• 1 Lake: +1 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.
  
• 3 Lakes: +2 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.
  
• 6 Lakes: +5 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.

Lakes are placed in a chain (maximum 6) or individually, 1 at a time, to get the maximum number of Habitat tiles around.

Placing in a chain:



Placing individually:



River size increases the bonus to harmony points for each adjacent Habitat:

• 3 tiles: +1 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.
  
• 12 tiles: +2 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.
  
• 24 tiles: +5 harmony for each adjacent Habitat.

The river should not have any sharp turns so that the maximum number of Habitats can be placed around it:




Requirement: a Lake of 6 tiles.

Placement: on a Lake.

Description: Increases the Harmony Point bonus by +1 for each Lake or River square and +2 for each Habitat square adjacent to a Lake or River.



Requirement: 10 Habitats adjacent to water.

Placement: any unoccupied square.

Description: Unlocks the Natural Wonders Shop.

The marine biome is very different from the previous two, since there is no mechanics for irrigating the land. The land has three levels of depth: ocean, sea and coast. With the help of special cards, we will raise the land to a higher level:





Placement: Ocean or Sea tile.

Description: Raises one land tile to a higher level and gives +1 harmony point for it.





Placement: Ocean or Sea tiles.

Description: Raises 7 land tiles to a higher level and gives +1 harmony point for each raised tile (maximum +7).



Cards to create Habitats:



Animal cards to place in Habitats:





Placement: Coastline tile.

Description: Grants bonus harmony points for each adjacent Habitat tile.




Placing Islands next to each other increases the harmony point bonus for each adjacent Habitat tile:

• 1 Island: +1 harmony for each adjacent Habitat tile.
  
• 3 Islands: +2 harmony for each adjacent Habitat tile.
  
• 6 Islands: +5 harmony for each adjacent Habitat tile.

Islands are placed in a chain (max 6) or individually by 1 to get the maximum amount of harmony points.

Chain placement:



Individual placement:






Placement: Ocean or Sea tile.

Description: Gives bonus harmony points for each adjacent Habitat tile and oxidizes the adjacent Habitat, allowing more animal species to be placed in it.




The harmony bonus from a Thermal Spring is calculated differently than from a Lake, and depends on how many identical Habitat tiles are adjacent to the spring:




Requirement: 10 Island and Thermal Spring tiles.

Placement: Island tile.

Description: Increases the harmony bonus by +1 for each Island and Thermal Spring tile, and +2 for each Habitat tile adjacent to the Island.



Requirement: 10 Habitats with 3 different animals.

Placement: any free tile.

Description: Unlocks the Natural Wonders Shop.





A Natural Wonder adds an animal to all identical Habitats. Each animal placed this way gives +10 Harmony. This way you can get 4 different animals in a 12-tile Habitat and 3 different animals in a 6-tile Habitat.

Map size: 19 cells * 7 islands = 133 cells.

1) You won't need any land at the ocean level, so raise all the land to at least the sea level. This will give you extra harmony points.

2) The Thermal spring needs to be placed to oxidize certain habitats, to accommodate 3 different animals in them, and to get the maximum number of harmony points. The picture below shows the ideal placement of habitats around the Thermal spring:



3) In total, we can place 11 habitats in 12 cells, of which 4 habitats are algae and will be placed at the sea level, and 7 habitats (trees and corals) will be placed at the coast level.

The final result will depend on how many Seahorse cards you get. For ideal placement, you need to get 7 Seahorse cards.

Map size: 19 cells * 11 islands = 209 cells.

1) You can do without land at the level - ocean.

2) Always place Thermal Springs so that there is the same Habitat around. You will have to place two Thermal Springs in a certain number of Habitats.

3) There are enough Islands to make two chains of six Islands, the rest of the Islands are placed one at a time.

4) In total, we can place 15 Habitats in 12 cells, of which 6 Habitats are algae and will be placed at ground level - sea, and 9 Habitats (trees and corals) will be placed at ground level - coast.

The final result will depend on how many Thermal Spring cards are given.
