good or bad for you or your fellow players.
Be careful not to pick up a non-matching
token. If you do, you’ll have to put it back
in the lagoon hole.
For 2 players: The player who rolled the
die fishes for matching sea sprites in both
of their lagoon holes first, then the other
player fishes in both of their lagoon holes.
You can decide for yourself which of your
two hiding holes to put your tokens in. If
one of your hiding holes is full, start filling
the second hole.
5. Pass the die
Pass the die to the next player in the
direction of the arrow on the spinner. This
starts a new round.
Game end
The player who collects nine sea sprite
tokens first wins! If one player reaches
nine tokens, the current round is still
played to the end, giving the other players
a chance to catch up. If more than one
player collects nine sea sprite tokens,
these players tie for winner!
For 2 players: The first player to fill both
of their hiding holes with nine tokens each
(18 total) wins. Again, the round is played
to the end.
Game variant:
Ghost octopus
Distribute the three ghost octopus
tokens on the large spinning disk
during game setup. During the game,
the ghost octopus blocks the lagoon
holes in which he appears.
You cannot fish for sea sprites in the lagoon
holes where the ghost octopus tokens are
visible. During your turn, place the sea sprite
tokens you collect on the table in front of you,
not directly into your hiding hole. If you happen
to find a ghost octopus while fishing, you have
to put all the tokens you found in this round
back into the hole. The octopus tokens remains
in the whirlpool. If you stop fishing voluntarily
without having found a ghost octopus, you may
put all the collected sea sprites into your hiding
hole.
Tip for families:
When adults and children play
together, you can have the game variant rules
apply to the adults only.
