Beacon Patrol

Players act as coast guard captains working together to secure the North Sea coast by checking beacon buoys and lighthouses. On each turn players place tiles adjacent to existing tiles, move ships across the sea and explore new areas. Tiles become explored when they are connected on all four sides, and the group scores by exploring as many tiles as possible. The game is cooperative and centers on tile-laying, map expansion and coordinated ship movement to ensure waterways and beacons are secured.
