Australis

About the game

What is Australis?

Off the east coast of Australia is an underwater superhighway, a warm stretch of ocean called the East Australian Current. Here, your sea turtles swim amidst beautiful flora and fauna. Each round you choose dice which offer various advantages in this diverse ecosystem: select food cubes to feed ever-growing schools of fish, settle corals onto reefs, swim further down the current with your sea turtles or choose to be the first player to pick dice in the next round. Your various actions earn you points and whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins.
