Xeko
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Xeko is a collectible card game revolving around endangered species. It won the Creative Child Magazine 2006 Toy of the Year Award[1] and The National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval.[2] Two "Mission" sets have been released, Mission: Costa Rica and Mission: Madagascar, based on biodiversity hotspots. Xeko was designed by Amy Tucker, a Seattle-based game designer.
In addition to attempting to raise awareness using the game itself, Matter Group (the company that produces Xeko):
- offers a program to recycle booster pack wrappers
- donates a portion of sales to Conservation International
- manufactures cards from recycled paper
