Amazing addition to an already amazing game

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

The sealife addition adds a lot of really great cards, with new strategies, special buildings, and even changes the association board and some of the base action cards. It's really amazing, just get it.

More for your zoo

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This expansion adds aquariums and marine animals to the base game. Many replacement cards fix some of cards in the base game and/or allow the marine animals to be smoothly added to to the base game.

Works great!

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

A Clean expansion with a little for everyone; wood animal tokens for those who want more chrome to customize their game, more cards (which is why we love the game in the first place), and new action select cards (which are integrated better than the new ones for Terraforming Mars Ares).

Nice mini expansion

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

Very fun expansion with little rules overhead. Lots of fun mechanics without being overly difficult. There seems to be a lot of unnecessary components though such as replacement initial starting action cards that make things more confusing with more symbols instead of words imo but you can always not use them. Given the price point - it is a nice addition.

Great addition to one of the best games

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

The gameplay additions are seamless and fit into the theme, the flow and the feel of the game easily. It adds just enough complexity without overwhelming the gameplay.

Great expansion

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

Marine worlds is an excellent add on to the ark nova base game, it will bring the game to a higher level through the added randomness of cards and the included meeples and bonus tiles absolutely great

Adds More Than An Aquarium

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

Ark Nova: Marine Worlds makes an already-fantastic game even better. A new tagged category for Marine life is added, and with it, new animals, sponsors, goals, conservation projects, card actions, and even new enclosures. A wave mechanic is added to help cycle through more cards and a reef ability is added to allow for the stacking of certain abilities making for some great combos. A new University aids in the specialization in a tag of the player's choosing. Replacement cards, new cards, and new bonus tiles are added to supplement the base game, even if playing without the Marine-themed cards. Finally, the change that adds the most variability is the new action cards. No two games will be the same because each new action card will lead the player to specialize in a different strategy in order to build the most successful zoo / aquarium combination.

This expansion will now live in my game. The addition of the new animal type with their bonus compounding coral powers, helping see more cards in the deck and just a smidge more thinky-ness with the asymmetric cards that adds a whole new level pf game play.
