About the Game

Abrolhos invites you to become a guardian of the Abrolhos coral reef ecosystem, located in Brazil, where strategy intertwines with ecological stewardship. In this competitive placement game, players cultivate distinct coral species across a dynamic tidal board, earning points through symbiotic connections and biodiversity.

Each turn, you strategically place coral pieces adjacent to different species, mirroring real-world symbiotic relationships that strengthen the reef. The innovative tidal cycle mechanic shifts playable zones each round—corals thrive only in deep waters, forcing players to anticipate environmental changes and adapt their tactics accordingly.

Victory belongs to those who master the delicate balance: maximize symbiotic contact, achieve species variety bonuses, and claim resource-rich territories. Optional variants introduce competitive objectives and cooperative modes, ensuring replayability.

Abrolhos transforms abstract strategy into meaningful marine conservation education, making every placement a step toward protecting our oceans while delivering engaging, thoughtful gameplay.
