Description Description
In Shallow Sea, a multi-layered puzzle board game inspired by the breathtaking beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, players create their own vivid ocean landscapes by strategically arranging an array of marine life, colorful fish, and corals. Unlike typical puzzle games in which pieces merely stack up, the elements in Shallow Sea can activate, deactivate, and even move, creating exciting combos and thought-provoking dilemmas that keep you on your toes. On your turn, choose tiles showing fish, coral, or sea life, and place them on an empty space on your board. When fish surround a coral of the same color, you flip over the completed coral, which becomes a home for fish. Choose which fish will inhabit the coral, keeping the puzzle and ecosystem cards in mind. Use seashells to lure fish and move them, ideally completing multiple coral at once if you build them strategically. Invite other creatures to enrich your ocean, trying to match the distinct scoring requirements of the ecosystem cards in order to score the most points.

Kind of feels like combination of Cascadia+Harmonies. But, i liked this one way more. Score checking is so easy, game itself is amazingly beautiful, most of all, this game has unique taste, more than puzzle game. The only thing that i hope is, can buy extra wooden tile.

We love this game! The artwork is beautiful, and the game mechanic is fun! It really makes you think as the pool of tiles and fish can change so you have to change up your strategy. Also, love the scenarios given to try to achieve! We are more playing against the game now to try and achieve those rather than playing each other! I understand this is similar to Cascadia (we've not played that), but this is our first time with this type of game. We played it 7-8 times in a row the first time out. The developer / designer very responsive to questions on the BGG forum for any clarifications too. Cannot recommend enough!

Shallow Sea è un magnifico titolo di tile placement e set collection con una componentistica davvero eccezionale. Spesso viene paragonato a Cascadia, ma a mio avviso le somiglianze si limitano alla meccanica di selezione delle tessere. Per il resto, Shallow Sea risulta nettamente più profondo e strutturato. Ottimo anche il solitario, pur essendo un classico BYOS.

+ As Rahdo put it: "Finally a crunchy game that you can relax with." + Revealing your ocean as you flip tiles is quite satisfying. + Spending shells to move fish around keeps the puzzle dynamic and lets you chain actions. + For me, it has the edge over other nature-themed tile-laying games in both mechanics and presentation. (played once)

Maravilla de juego: sencillo de reglas, pero que hace estrujarte la cabeza, tiene combos, múltiples maneras de puntuar… Te deja con ganas de más. Estéticamente es precioso y los componentes son de calidad. Mi juego favorito de losetas. Junto a sus dos expansiones en caja base. KEEP
