About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're already a fan of Salmon Run and feel like the river is getting a bit too predictable, it's time to spice things up! This expansion, which originated from the 2012 Kickstarter campaign, brings a fresh twist to your salmon-filled adventures. It introduces a new double-sided board to keep your gameplay dynamic. On one side, you'll find 'The Fork,' which adds a river split, forcing players to make tactical decisions about which path to take. On the other side, 'Cataract Falls' introduces the challenge of waterfalls, altering the flow and strategy of the race. It's the perfect way to add replayability without needing to learn a whole new game system. This supplement is all about providing quick-to-implement variety, ensuring that every session feels unique as you navigate different river layouts. If you want to keep your Salmon Run matches feeling fresh and strategically diverse, this-is exactly what your collection needs!
