Aquamarine

About the game

What is Aquamarine?

Manage your oxygen reserves as you plunge beneath the ocean surface. Will you seek out fish and coral in the narrow sea caves? Or race to be first to reach the ocean floor? Dive deep down into the ocean to discover a vibrant underwater world in Aquamarine, a single-sheet, print-at-home game. On a turn, roll two dice to be used by all players. Using one of the die results, players mark their game sheets to show the position of their diver. The lower-value die might limit your options, but if you pick the higher value, you must use an amount of O₂ equal to the difference between the two dice. Choosing when to strike out is vital for seeing the most on your limited time beneath the waves! —description from the designer
