Abyss
Rally ocean lords and rule the depths through cunning alliances
Who it's for
Players drawn to gorgeous production and mid-weight set collection. The ally-drafting auction creates tense moments of greed vs. prudence.
Not for you if…
Skip if you prioritize deep strategy over aesthetics — the gameplay is solid but not groundbreaking beneath the beautiful surface.
Vibe's take
Gorgeous, flowing, political, atmospheric
About this game
