Jaws

Description
Designed by Prospero Hall and Published by Ravensburger Games in 2019
For 2-4 players in about 60 Minutes

Following Description taken from Boardgamegeek:[boardgamegeek.com]

In JAWS, one player takes on the role of the killer shark off Amity Island, while the other 1-3 players take on the roles of Brody, Hooper and Quint to hunt the shark. Character and event cards define player abilities and create game actions for humans and the shark. Gameplay is divided into two acts — Amity Island and The Orca — played on a double-sided board to replicate the film's story:

In the Amity Island phase, the shark menaces swimmers and avoids capture. Other players attempt to pinpoint the shark's location and save swimmers from shark attacks.
In the Orca phase, played on the reverse side of the game board, Brody, Hooper and Quint are aboard the sinking ship engaging in a climactic battle against the shark, while using additional action and strategy cards to defend the Orca from targeted shark attacks.
If humans kill the shark, they win; if the shark attack on the Orca succeeds, the great white shark wins.

I also get errors when importing everything, I'm not sure if I'm loading it wrong?

Very nice mod, but there's an error that can make for a long-drawn-out finale. The dice are supposed to have only one blank side, but three sides with one hit.

@slambo239 it's in a hidden zone that only the person playing as the shark can see.

Thank you - the publisher made a sale from use of this mod :)

The shark's resurface tokens don't "hide" when you pull them back. Is there a way to hide them so you don't have to say "okay, nobody look!"? Thanks, this is the first workshop game I've played on TTS.

Great game and great job importing it into this game. I played it the other night with a few people who weren't even too eager to try it, and everyone got into it very quickly and had a lot of fun. Thanks!

Played this for the first time with some friends today. Usually games based on movies are rather "meh", but this was really enjoyable.

They guy who had played it before (and was teaching us) was the shark.
He didn't hold back, but clarified when we had questions about the rules.
Managed to track him quite well (some spot on deduction and some luck when deduction gave multiple options).
Ended up with 8 extra "tools" in phase two, which according to the shark player was very rare, and he didn't expect to live.

This is when we really understood he wasn't holding back :P
We did make it with 3 damaged tiles left on the boat, and only melee weapons left.
Myself being 2 wounds away from dying, one undamaged player and one half dead player.

All in all it was great fun. I'll add it to my wishlist for physical games (games are great to wish for xmas, instead of "Oh IDK. Candy?" ;P)
