In biology, a `clade` is a complete branch of the evolutionary family tree. It defines categories of living things by their evolutionary history. This powerful concept has revolutionized the way scientists classify living things, and Clades, an animal-matching card game about evolutionary descent, makes it easy and fun.

In Clades, players must quickly scan an array of cards on the table — along with their own private card — to make triples as quickly as possible. Whoever spots the most triples wins.
