Sand Castles
Players cooperate on a beach to build three sand castles before advancing waves wash them away. On each turn, players collect sand and share tools like pails and shovels, then allocate resources to strengthen or raise the castles. Wind and waves advance at a predictable pace, forcing group decisions between constructing castle defenses or continuing vertical building. Players coordinate actions and manage limited resources to complete all three structures before the waves reach them.
