## FAQ
### Do I need the base Dive game to play with this expansion?
Absolutely! This expansion adds new elements to the main game, so you need to own the base game 'Dive' to use the Axolotl, Pufferfish, and Narwhal.

### How much does it add to the game time?
The expansion generally doesn't significantly increase the game time, which is already quick (20-30 minutes). The focus is more on adding new strategies and twists rather than extending the duration.

### Is it much harder than the base game?
It's not exactly 'hard', but it does add a bit more strategic depth. The new animal abilities might take a little while to get the hang of, but it's nothing too daunting for those already familiar with the base game.

### What are the new animals and what do they do?
There are three: the Axolotl, the Pufferfish, and the Narwhal. Each has a unique special ability that helps you in a different way, whether it's for better movement, grabbing more treasures, or hindering opponents. It's worth trying them all to see which one fits your style best!

### Does this expansion work with any game mode of Dive?
Yes! It's designed to be used with the 'Companions' variant already present in the base game, adding more options for that mode.

### Does it improve the solo play?
Yes, the expansion adds more variety and new strategies that can make the solo mode even more interesting and challenging.
