Moonshell

In the strategy puzzle game Moonshell, you play as a mermaid who is shifting tides in your direction to collect valuable seashells and create a stunning collection.

In more detail, the game board features a 5x5 array of colorful seashells of different types. Five public objectives are revealed, showing players the seashells they want to collect - whether by type, color, or overall pattern - on their 3x4 treasure chest board. You receive two secret objectives, keeping one and discarding the other. If you wish, you can play with each player taking a mermaid character (each of which has a unique power) and a moonshell, which serves as a wild seashell.

On a turn, you take three actions, repeating actions if you like. The actions are:

Rotate: Turn the game board 90º in the direction of the tide.

Pull 2: If the two rock spaces on the side of the game board next to you don't have any seashells on them, choose a column, place the first two seashells in this column on these rocks, slide the remaining seashells toward you, then draw from the supply bag to fill the empty spaces.

Collect: Take a seashell from a rock in front of you, and add it to your treasure chest, sliding the seashell to the bottom of the column in which you place it.
