Shallow Sea: Rare Fish Mini-Expansion

Introduce rare marine life and fresh spatial challenges to your underwater ecosystem with this official mini-expansion for the Shallow Sea board game. Designed to overlay seamlessly onto your existing tile-placement strategies, this pocket-sized module challenges players to adapt their coral reefs to accommodate vulnerable open-ocean predators and unique aquatic scoring rules.

* Four Custom Wooden Meeples: Includes 4 screen-printed wooden creature markers representing endangered or vulnerable sea life, featuring a Hammerhead Shark, Maori Wrasse, Sawfish, and a Whale Shark.
* Three Dynamic Ecosystem Cards: Adds 3 specialized configuration cards that introduce original endgame scoring patterns and unique grid constraints based on the specific rare fish selected for the match.
* Fresh Spatial Grid Constraints: Forces players to think critically about placement, introducing mechanical restrictions such as dangerous exclusion zones where standard marine life tiles cannot be placed adjacent to a shark.
* Increased Setup Replayability: Expands the variability of the base game's drafting loops, offering a short, low-complexity modular puzzle variant that can be combined with other expansions or solo scenarios.
* Base Game Components Required: Features a compact layout designed strictly as a supplemental add-on; a complete copy of the original Shallow Sea core box is necessary to utilize these cards and meeples.
