Two weeks ago, we made a call to get playtesters for the next game in the Evolution series, Oceans. Our plan was to get 100 dedicated playtesters. To our surprise we received over 1,200 submissions! Wow. Thank you for your excitement. We feel honored (and a bit daunted).
The submissions were as diverse as the colors in Catherine Hamilton's Reef...
...so instead of turning away a thousand enthusiastic people, we're making the PnP files and the Tabletop Simulator game available to everyone. We don't want you to wait until September 2019 to play Oceans (while others talk excitedly about their experiences on social media).
Print & Play and Tabletop Simulator
There are two ways to play:
- Download the Print & Play files and make a prototype.
- Play on Tabletop Simulator
Have fun exploring! You never know what you might find.
Great blog! Thank you so much for sharing lovely post. I appreciate to blogger for helpful sharing
Is there a way to make a late pledge for oceans?
G’day
Does Catherine have a website where we can purchase copies of her art? I adore her style and would love to see more of what she does.
Is the kickstarter out yet
I am excited others get a chance to play this. This has been a highlight of my gaming year. Great game, great company, game on.
Great hat, Dom. LOL

“In the email you guys just sent out you say “You will have all of the perks of an official playtester without any of the onerous time commitments.” I’m assuming this does NOT include the perk of getting a free retail copy for committing to the onerous time commitments?”
Yikes. Why do I always make one critical mistake in everything that goes out to a ton of people? You are correct. They do not get a free copy of the game.

Hi Keith. We uploaded Beta v1.1 files for this wave. Hopefully all of those questions are answered in the updated rules and player aid.
Cheers!

The “details are available here” link doesn’t yet have the gameplay questions and answers at the playtesting site.
