He wants to gather new information about animal life, particularly about continents he hardly explored. Who other than young naturalists, eager for discovery, could help the renowned scholar finish writing his most famous work? Players are junior naturalists who have just arrived aboard the Beagle to help Charles Darwin finish his book On the Origin of Species.
