Nereus (2023)

The game is about exploring uncharted waters and finding and bringing back valuable creatures and artifacts. In the game, players move freely through three different types of ocean areas with different risk/reward, acquiring tiles as they go. They can also procure equipment for their exploration vessels at junk stores on the map. Some equipment can be used to steal items from other ships, so players need to consider the ship's current position as they take action. After an item tile is acquired, it must be brought back to the designated square before it is counted as a victory point. Each item tile has a symbol on it, and matching the same symbol will give you a bonus to your victory points. The player with the most victory points after 12 rounds wins. -description from designer
