Product Description

Off the east coast of Australia is an underwater superhighway, a warm stretch of ocean called the East Australian Current. Here, your sea turtles swim amidst beautiful flora and fauna. Each round you choose dice which offer various advantages in this diverse ecosystem: select food cubes to feed ever-growing schools of fish, settle corals onto reefs, swim further down the current with your sea turtles or choose to be the first player to pick dice in the next round.

Your various actions earn you points and whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins. At the end of each round, an exciting dice showdown awaits. Dice with a higher value have a better chance of winning, but sometimes even they won’t save you! Who will best hold their own in the turbulent waters of the EAC?

  • A unique and sophisticated dice-rolling strategy game set off the eastern coast of Australia
  • Ideal for seasoned gamers and fans of robust competitive strategy games
  • Distinctive concept and stunning artwork; has a great table presence

Scarlett C. ★★★★★

I've played a few ocean games before but the East Australian Current mechanic here actually feels like a real living highway. Watching my sea turtles glide past the coral and flora is oddly calming, and I keep firing it up just to drift around for twenty minutes.

Avery ★★★★★

The way the current pushes your turtles along feels genuinely soothing, and the coral details along the East Australian Current stretch are gorgeous to just drift past. I lost a whole evening to this and didn't mind one bit.

Miles ★★★★★

The turtles glide so smoothly through the kelp forests, and the current itself is honestly the star of the whole thing. I lost track of time just drifting past the coral.
