Aquatica: Coral Reefs Review: How Deep is Your Cove?

About Aquatica: Coral Reefs, from BoardGameGeek:

Coral Reefs is an expansion to the base game Aquatica that introduces the Southern Tribes, more underwater creatures, new characters, and Manta Ray encounters that can turn the rules of the game upside down! In Aquatica, an engine-building strategy board game, players compete to become the most powerful Sea King. They will play cards from their hands, activate powerful combos, capture locations, recruit creatures, and more-everything to gain the most Victory Points by the end of the game. Coral Reefs perfectly complements the base game and its other Cold Waters expansion. It comes with several new modules with additional goals and mechanics, along with new components like coral reef miniatures and transparent reef cards. Together with its expansions, Aquatica is a fascinating strategy to play with family or friends! The game takes around 50 minutes to play and is suitable for 1-5 players aged 12+. -description from the publisher
