Abyss is the most stunning game you can buy today, featuring exceptional production value. On top of that, it was created by Bruno Cathala, the mastermind behind a number of excellent games (Five Tribes, Dice Town, or Raptor), so it is definitely not a soulless game—quite the opposite.
Just like other Cathala games, Abyss has rules simple enough for casual players to grasp, yet it will still captivate hardcore gamers. The game also features a unique theme—you are vying for the throne of an underwater kingdom, needing to gain the support of various underwater clans and, through them, their lords. I also appreciate that you can acquire cards outside of your turn, but you must pay the active player in pearls (the local currency). This keeps you constantly engaged in the heart of the action.
Abyss je nejnádhernější hra, kterou jde dnes pořídit s výbornou produkční hodnotou. Kromě toho ji ale vytvořil Bruno Cathala, který stojí za řadou výborných her (Five Tribes, Dice Town nebo Raptor), takže rozhodně nejde o hru bezduchou, spíše naopak.
Podobně jako jiné Cathalovi hry, i Abyss má dostatečně jednoduchá pravidla, aby ji pochopili i sváteční hráči, ale zaujme i hardcore hráče. Hra má také unikátní téma - ucházíte se o trůn podmořského království, potřebujete získat podporu jednotlivých podmořských rodů a díky nim jejich lordů. Na hře oceňuji i to, že můžete získávat karty mimo svůj tah, ale musíte za to platit perlami (místní měna) aktivnímu hráči. Jste tak neustále zapojeni do víru dění.
