About this game
Millions of years ago, the oceans were the battleground for evolutionary supremacy. Dominant Species: Marine distills the beloved original into a tighter, more aggressive experience focused on the ancient seas. Adapt your species, spread across the growing ocean, and trigger devastating action cards that reshape the ecosystem. The worker placement drives agonizing turn-order decisions, and dominance scoring rewards tactical flexibility over rigid planning.
