## Description

Aqualin is a two-player strategy game that is easy to learn but challenging to master. During the game, each player attempts to group together as many matching tiles as possible, and to form the most groups. One player works to create groups of the same color, while the other makes groups of the same type of sea creature. The bigger the group is, the more points it’s worth. At the end of the game, whoever has the most points wins.

Review: Great 2 Player Tile laying Game- Buy a felt bag to go with it! - We love this two player tile game! Someone plays as the colors and someone plays as the sea creatures. You move the other person's tiles and play your own trying to make your colors or creatures touch and get in groups. It is fun and challenging to think through your plays and try to stick your opponent. Highly recommend this 2 Player game! I have gifted it to several people! We also bought a felt bag on desertcart to keep the tiles in and it allows the game to play quicker and easier!!
Review: Aqualin is a great 2-player abstract game - Aqualin is a game of tile arrangement and set making. The game is easy to learn, but mastering it takes a bit more work. It feels almost like a game of checkers or chess and has that puzzle quality to it. Strengths: - Simple rules - Easy to set up - Interactive game play - Great table presence Flaws: - Might not have a high replay value since the gameplay is similar each time - Confrontational game play (which is a negative for some people) Aqualin is a great 2-player abstract game.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replayability is limited
*by T***U on January 3, 2022*

The game is quite fun but it isn’t something that is to die for to play multiple times. It’s more of a quick game to play when you have time to burn but it DOES take 20 minutes to play. Super simple game that requires a lot of strategy and thinking. However, it’s not a top game for me hence why I took off one star. Ultimately, the more you play it, the less you’re going to really enjoy it.
