Poseidon's Kingdom*
Poseidon has lost his valuable trident, and his friends have gone missing while searching for it. They have been captured by the evil Hans, the Kraken, who plans to make a stew out of them. Players must break through the Kraken's tentacles to rescue their friends and defeat him, all while navigating a game featuring a wave mechanic that launches dice onto the board and a popular ant hill system for a compelling experience.
During their turn, players can either enhance their abilities with an action token or place some of their personal dice on a 3D wave that releases randomly, moving their creatures to collect dice of any color. If they succeed, they can store the dice for later use or create combinations to earn victory point tokens before the shark moves and potentially eats their creatures, blocking their action spaces with "skeletons." The game ends with a scoring round, and the player with the most victory points wins. The second edition introduces a dolphin that can protect your creatures from the shark.
