Summary
Finspan's first expansion, Sharks & Reefs release this month and the Designer Michael O'Connell is on the show talking to Dr Scarlett Smash and Dr Kraken. Finspan Expansion: Players can now nurture colorful coral reefs in each of their ocean's three dive sites. Healthy reefs enable you to play powerful reef fish, unlock fish abilities, and score bonuses at the end of the game. Meanwhile, sharks scatter schools of young (to form even more schools elsewhere) and leave behind food scraps that any fish in your ocean can consume. Designer Michael O'Connell and artists Ana María Martínez, Catalina Martínez, & Mesa Schumacher highlight a wide array of sharks and fish that coexist in the beautiful coral reefs of the world. To play this expansion, you need the Finspan core game https://stonemaiergames.com/games/finspan/sharks-reefs-expansion/ Contact [email protected] for more information about sponsoring MCHH episodes Music credits By Jolly Shore Leave "Al For Me Grog (Trad.)"
