About the game
Get ready for a maritime adventure where the line between hunter and hunted is very thin in Vampire Shark Attack! In this super fun game, you and your friends take turns being fearless pirates or bloodthirsty vampire sharks. As a pirate, your goal is to survive the attacks of the sea creature, navigate the modular board, and of course, find valuable treasures to score points. Each turn, you have 1 to 3 spaces to swim, trying to escape the shark and, why not, hinder other pirates – after all, a blocked friend is an easy target, right? A little luck can also lend a hand in tight spots.

But the fun doesn't stop there! When you take on the role of the vampire shark, the mission changes radically: bite and transform pirates into new sharks to accumulate victory points. The shark moves 3 spaces in a straight line towards the closest pirate, so the chase is intense! Strategy cards come into play to spice up the game even more, allowing pirates to dodge bites or the shark to move more freely. The tension of escape and pursuit is constant, and the 'backstabbing' among players is guaranteed, leading to lots of laughs. Ultimately, whatever your role, cunning and the ability to outsmart your opponents are the key to victory. Who will be the last pirate standing or the hungriest shark?
