Hidden depths
AQUATICA
Designer: Ivan Tuzovsky | Publisher: Cosmodrome Games
The weight of responsibility is on your shoulders. As king of a watery realm, you must explore the seas to gain resources and increase the prosperity of your people. You’ll use the powers of the mantas and plunder undiscovered locations on your quest for greatness. But, get too distracted by the strange creatures you meet along the way and you’ll find yourself swimming in circles.
In Aquatica, each player starts with a set of identical character cards and a King card, allocated by turn order or drafted from a selection. On your turn you must play one character card from your hand and fully execute the action shown on the card. Different characters give different actions. The Blue Water’s Agent enables you to recruit another, more powerful character from a line on the board, the Legioner gives you power to conquer locations and the Matrona acts as a reset – enabling you to pick up cards and reuse benefits from your shoal of mantas.
