Come learn to play with me. You will control a tribe of “shorelings” (meeples) and build a seaside kingdom. The game can be more or less complex based on the rules chosen.
Long Description:
This game for 1-4 players is centered around building sand castles, solving 3D puzzles, and avoiding hazards like the Giant- a toddler that can bring everything crashing down. Best for ages 10+.
Each turn, you'll place blocks and meeples on the map to earn victory points. The core gameplay is similar to abstract strategy games like Santorini, in that players must optimize three-dimensional placement on a shared grid. Hazards are the only source of randomness in the game, and even those depend on player choices.
