About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! Who's already had fun trying to save as many people as possible from the sinking island of Atlantis? Well, the base game "Survive: Escape From Atlantis!" is already a blast, but now with this mini-expansion, the party can get even bigger! This little gem allows you to invite more friends to the chaos, increasing the player count from 4 to up to 6 people. Just imagine: more people scrambling for boats, more hungry mermaids, and more sea monsters looking to give you a scare. The game's dynamic remains the same: everyone has their hidden meeples and needs to get them to safety before the island sinks. With more players, the competition gets fiercer, and strategies can change completely. Will you manage to save your friends, or will you use them as bait to escape? This expansion doesn't add complex rules; the focus is purely on expanding the base game's capacity, ensuring more people can join the fun. If you already enjoy "Survive: Escape From Atlantis!" and have always wanted to play with a larger group, this is the right choice. Prepare your boats and good luck, because in Atlantis, luck is all that's left!

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
Do I need the base game "Survive: Escape From Atlantis!" to use this expansion?
Absolutely! This is a mini-expansion that only works if you have the base game. It adds more players, but not the game itself.
How many players does this expansion add?
It allows you to play with 5 or 6 players. The base game already supports up to 4, so this expansion increases the capacity for larger groups.
Does the expansion change the game rules much?
No, the main idea is just to increase the player count. The survival and escape mechanics remain the same; what changes more is the dynamic and competition among more people.
Does the game take much longer with more players?
It might take a little longer, as more people will be taking turns and making decisions. But the island continues to sink at the same pace, so the pressure increases!
Is this expansion complicated to learn?
Not at all! Since it doesn't add complex new rules, it's super easy to introduce into any game of the base game. Just put more meeples and boats on the table!
Is it worth it for family game nights?
Totally! If your family enjoys "Survive: Escape From Atlantis!" and you often play in groups of 5 or 6, this expansion is perfect for including everyone in the fun.
