The main engine of Terra del Mar is a dice-based resource collection mechanism. Players collect fish by placing their boat meeples on the corners of intersecting hex tiles, and gaining fish when the tile’s corresponding number is rolled. Terra del Mar uses two four-sided dice, and maps out the probability of each sum of two dice being rolled using dots, which players can use to identify the best fishing spots. Anyone familiar with the Catan dice-roll resource collection will be able to easily pick up this game, and it offers a very different gameplay experience while piggybacking on players’ existing knowledge of the Catan mechanic.

Players must regularly bring their boats back into harbor, meaning the best spots are regularly shifted around from player to player. This adds a “push your luck” element to the game, where players must decide whether to stay out and fish more but risk being caught in a storm, or to return to harbor but risk losing their fishing spots. Fish are used as an in-game resource by selling them for gold to purchase new boats, new houses, or to upgrade “tourism levels.” These “tourism levels” depend on other prerequisites being met and are used as the victory condition – first to level 6 – thus avoiding the cumbersome tracking of victory points throughout the game.
