Animal Rescue Team
Are you ready to guide a cow and her calf out of a surging river? To coax a frightened cat from a building on the verge of collapse? With flames approaching and roadblocks in the way, can you reach a trapped dog and bring her to safety?
When disasters strike, animals need us more than ever.
As a team of specialists, you’ll face the worst that nature has to offer as you evacuate animals to the safety of shelters.
Do you have what it takes to join the Animal Rescue Team?
Designed by Matt Leacock (Pandemic, Daybreak) and Lisa Towell (animal rescue expert).

In Animal Rescue Team, players are specialists in the field of Animal Rescue.

Work together to complete missions while dealing with the emergency of rescues that appear on a regular basis.

Rescues place animals on the map and players must work together to bring vehicles and specialists to the rescue. Each Rescue card has a difficulty number to roll but can be mitigated by bringing the right specialists, equipment, and/or vehicles. Make sure you have room in your vehicle to rescue all the animals on the card.

Successfully complete 3 missions without letting any rescue cards to go off the map without being rescued before time runs out (don’t worry about the animals; a neighboring team comes to their rescue).
