Also just one of the best co-ops out there. Altho I do feel like themes have been getting better with time, slowly, as someone who's been in the hobby a long time haha
Isn't that the one where you're trying to grab ancient artifacts off of an island that's about to go underwater in 5 minutes or am I confusing it with something else?
It's a game where you play as Spirits trying to push colonizers off the island before they pollute it to death. They're all themed around different biomes and such. It's highly asymmetric and fun. The designer also consulted with anthropologists and such to make sure no naming conventions were similar to known indigenous languages.
I think you're thinking of Survive! Escape from Atlantis
Oooh, that one does sound interesting and significantly more anti colonialist than what I was thinking
The game I was looking for wasn't Survive!: Escape from Atlantis. It was something else with I believe an extremely similar premise, I think. I've played it several times before and remember most of the rules but I can't for the LIFE of me remember what it was called, other than I'm like 80% sure the word "Island" was in the title. The tiles were square, there were 4 artifacts to rescue, one of which was a purple chalice of sorts? The box art had a tower standing over the forest in the night, I think
This is why Spirit Island was needed and is based

Thunderspeaker will always be my main, because true power comes from the people :hammer-sickle:
My wife and I like to play Ocean's Hungry Grasp and Bringer of Dreams and Nightmares together. A really fun, flavorful and powerful duo
edit: i also really like River Surges in Sunlight combined with Thunderspeaker. Just insane Dahan production >:3
I was just about to say OHG is my favorite.
I'm hungry for more colonizers, feed me spirits that are good at pushing.
A Spread of Rampant Green is also really cool but almost feels like cheating.
I think of Ocean and Nightmares as the Cthulhu Combo

Oh, Forbidden Island! That one is decent but just a bit too simple for me personally. I like it for family game nights though.
THAT'S THE ONE. To be honest no wonder I keep forgetting it with such a forgettable title. Thank you
