Survive The Island is a strategic and adventurous board game from Zygomatic, where players must escape a sinking island while outsmarting opponents and avoiding deadly sea creatures. But be careful—not everyone will make it out alive!
How to Play Survive The Island?
-
Set Up the Island
- The game board is prepared with 40 island tiles, representing different terrains such as beaches, forests, and mountains.
- Each player places their 10 adventurers strategically across the island.
-
The Island Starts to Sink
- At the start of each turn, a player removes an island tile, causing the island to shrink and reducing safe zones.
- Some tiles contain surprises like boats or hidden dangers, making every decision tense and unpredictable.
-
Escape to Safety
- Players move their adventurers by boat or swimming toward the safe islands at the board’s edge.
- Choosing the right route can mean survival, but beware—swimming is risky!
-
Monsters Lurk Beneath
- The waters are full of danger! Sharks attack swimmers, sea serpents devour anything in their path, and whales capsize boats.
- Players roll the creature die to determine which monster they can move, allowing them to disrupt opponents' plans.
-
End of the Game
- Once all island tiles have disappeared and the island has completely sunk, the game ends.
- The player who rescues the most adventurers and earns the most points wins!
