Reef Encounter is about life on a coral reef! Using polyp tiles,
players grow different types of corals, which they can protect from
being attacked by other corals through judicious placing of their
four wooden shrimp. To be successful players must consume polyps
from neighboring corals in order to acquire the ‘consumed’
polyp tiles that are the key to the game. The consumed polyp tiles
have a myriad of uses: most importantly they can be used to flip
over or lock the coral tiles, which determine the respective values
of the different types of coral at the end of the game.
