The Coral Reef Expansion is for the base game Aquatica, an engine - building strategy board game. Dive into a new underwater world and meet southern tribes and new underwater creatures! This expansion flips the game rules with Manta Ray encounters. In Aquatica, players aim to be the most powerful Sea King by playing cards, activating combos, capturing locations, and recruiting creatures to earn victory points. The Coral Reef Expansion complements the base game and its Cold Waters expansion. It includes new modules with extra goals and mechanics, plus new components like coral reef miniatures and transparent reef cards. Aquatica with its expansions is a great strategy game for family or friends. It takes about 50 minutes to play and is suitable for 1 - 5 players aged 12+.
How to use: First, set up the base game Aquatica as usual. Then, add the components from the Coral Reef Expansion, like the coral reef miniatures and transparent reef cards. Shuffle the new cards into the main deck. Start the game as normal. Each player tries to play cards, form combos, capture locations, and recruit creatures to get the most victory points. The game ends after about 50 minutes. Remember, Manta Ray encounters can change the rules, so be ready for surprises. Note: Make sure all players are at least 12 years old. When setting up, handle the new components gently, especially the transparent reef cards. Maintenance: After each game, put all the cards and components back in their boxes. Keep them in a dry place to avoid damage.
