How to play Metavita

Playing Metavita

  1. Choose a tree or shared game

    Sign in to your Trainwreck Labs account and open a shared game. Browse Trees to see the trees available to you. Club members can create their own trees.

  2. Compare species

    Guess a species from the tree. Use the shared ancestry revealed by each guess to narrow the possible answers.

  3. Find the hidden species

    Compare the branches from your guesses and continue until you identify the mystery species. Hosts control the species selection and the games they share.

Tips and further reading

The available answers depend on the selected tree. A species outside that tree is not a candidate for that game.
