This game is a tale of two adventures - the sharks and molluscs battling over territory in the area control game, and the smugglers trying to race through a pick-up and deliver game changing the game state as they move through and trying to accurately predict who will likely control each region. It's also a game of two emotional states, the glee and devastation of the tight area control, or the more passive breezy smuggler's journey. In this video we talk through all of the tidal highs and lows.

Thanks for stopping by for our mechanics & theme board game review of Ahoy. We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience. #boardgames #thinkerthemer
