Pandemic: Rising Tide (Board Game)
Storms are brewing and the sea is growing restless. Will your efforts be enough to stem the rising tide?
Storms on the Horizon
For centuries, the Dutch have relied upon a series of dikes and wind-powered
pumps to keep water from invading their lands. But with a quarter of the
Netherlands reclaimed from the sea and the population constantly expanding, a
new system is needed to hold back the ever-encroaching waters. In Pandemic:
Rising Tide, you and your friends play as a team of Dutch civil officials
helping to modernize the water containment system. Your ultimate goal is to
construct four hydraulic structures that will ensure the safety of the Dutch
people for generations to come. To accomplish this task, however, you must first
buy yourself enough time by building dikes to control water flow, ports to
facilitate travel, and windmills to pump the water out of flooded lands. But
proceed with caution. A single misstep could send water spilling across the
countryside. Choose your actions carefully, work as a team, and usher in the
Industrial Age!
More Water, More Problems
Combining the addictive cooperative gameplay of Pandemic with innovative new
mechanics, Pandemic: Rising Tide takes players on an exciting journey across the
Netherlands. As you sail these water-filled regions, you’ll be faced with a
variety of problems caused by flooding and Rising Tide provides a variety of
objectives to simulate this. Beyond building the four hydraulic structures, your
team might be tasked with expanding the Dutch population into areas threatened
by storm waters, constructing water pumps to protect the country’s valuable
textile industry, or building ports along the Maas River. Each game features a
new combination of Objective cards, creating a unique scenario every time you
play. To improve your team’s chances of completing them, every player takes
on a specific role with special abilities. Join together, play to your
characters’ strengths, and stem the tide!
