Played Reef Encounter for the first time tonight. My initial impression is that it is a game you want to have taught to you by someone who already knows the game. Barring that knowing the rules is not enough. You should sit down and play through a few rounds by yourself just to get a feel for it. Especially if you have a group that doesn't like to have to learn games from scratch.

It looks like a good game. I am really looking forward to playing again. We did miss several important rules that effected gameplay negatively, and I'm not sure my group is eager to play again.
