Deep Sea Adventure | Shelfside Review

Ойындар

In this Shelfside Review, we dive into Deep Sea Adventure, a push your luck board game to become the richest scuba diver. This tabletop Oink game is accessible in a cute little box, and promises fun risk-taking. No seriously. it's the definition of travel-sized, this absolutely is a game you can bring on the go as a portable game. Players will take turns rolling dice and descending deeper into the ocean where the deeper you go, the richer you become. But be careful of running out of air from the stupidly shared tank between all the divers!
How does it compare to Incan gold with the pick up and deliver mechanic? Does it have replayability? How does it scale? Dive deep with us and find out!

    We use Deep Sea Adventure as a filler game while we’re waiting for others to arrive for the main show event. I think your assessment is spot on 👍 Love your reviews guys! Keep them up!

    love deep sea adventure! There's a smaller box version for anyone interested in it. The components are the same size and quality. Only difference I could find was the box size in America was made larger to prevent shoplifting.

    I adore Deep Sea Adventure. Every game make me laugh so much! Like the round where one player barely dipped her for into the ocean and came right back up with two treasures from the first set, but was the only survivor of the round. Unfortunately, when she inspected her loot, they were both zero! Hahahah! Maybe it's because I bring it to my Meetup I run(ran... Wahhh!) and am always teaching it to new players, but I've played dozens of games of it without feeling any burnout. Great video, great review!!

    the game makes me laugh for sure! Super easy to teach to new players, and really excited to play it with familiy over the weekend. I remember seeing this on your top 10 list actually, and was wondering in the back of my head what you'd have to say about our take on DSA :) -Ashton

    Do you guys review games based on what props you can find or do you go find props after selecting a game to review xD??

    Really good question, its typically finding the props after :) We got a lot of people we play with that have a ton of props in their houses which definitely helps! Sadly no diving fins or real oxygen tanks in this one

    If you guys like push-your-luck games, then I have three words for you: "Quacks of Quedlinburg" Top-notch bag-building, thoughtful strategic chooses, and stupid replayability even without the expansion; I have never had more fun playing chicken with my friends and cursing my own hubris.

    If your box looks a bit more like what you can see in the background around 10:44, then you might have the original Japanese version. It's even smaller than the one in the video and fits in a jacket pocket. That is the reason why the sub is so small! If your components are not made from wood, but from plastic, you most definitely bought a Chinese knock-off.
