That's an extremely clever system to have an automated enemy player. Congrats on that ingenuity, and I look forward to playing it down the line. Simply so excited for this game and knowing that it also includes a solo mode just branches up the ways of playing it.
That's a great question! The automa gets a varied number of cards each round - currently (I say "currently" because it is still in-development and playtest, so is subject to change) the difficulty levels are Easy drawing 4 cards, 5 for Standard, 6 for Hard, 7 for Advanced and 8 for Expert.
I don't understand the difference between species size and population? Would the size not vary depending on the age and how can a species get bigger over time? It's like this weird intangible abstract species that I just can't imagine. I really want to like this game but the mechanics feel a bit of a mess to me. Maybe I'd love it!
It's the evolution of a species; not a single instance of an animal. Size is the size of the species; population is how numerous they are. So, each round of the game represents many thousands of years and a changing species, not the lifetime of a single organism.

Fantastic solo mode! Whats the difficulty level difference for the solo AI?

Crikey, you're messy! That box man.
I know! I turned it upside down for the video, to show the back of the box :)
Is there any way you could make this TTS mod public? The official one doesn't seem to have the solo cards.
I understand the team is working on it 👍
