Review: This JAWS co-op game takes a bites out of other games! - I really just became Ravenburger's favorite board gamer. My family plays A LOT of board games. We just love them. We can hardly decide on a movie or tv show that everyone agrees on, but board games are our great neutralizer. We have enjoyed co-op games in the past with such favorites as Pandemic and Forbidden Island, but none have the nostalgic feel and visualization as being in a Ravensburger game. JAWS is an excellent game. It mixes strategy with the luck of the dice. The gameboard graphics take you to Amity Island and Quint's Orca ship. The playing pieces- cards, tokens, beachgoers, and wooden ships-shark-and players are top-notch. The premise of the game is fun and fair to both the shark and the characters. The game may be a bit difficult for newcomers to co-op games but I must say that these directions are excellently written and are presented in a nice and thorough and clear sequence. Note: Ravensburger games do not come sealed in cellophane. Rather, they are taped closed. Suggestions for Ravensburger: Make the board a little bigger as such beautiful graphics on this gameboard should be displayed in a bigger format. Also, beachgoers should have a little beach container to be sunning in waiting for their turn in the ocean to possibly encounter The Shark. Note to Ravensburger: I volunteer to be a future game tester for you. I truly love your games!!!!
Review: A super fun way to spend a snow day - This game is cat and teen approved. We had a snow day and my teenaged nieces were over. We decided to watch Jaws while playing Jaws. It was a great time. I love the two different acts of the game that can be played in sequence or separately. We decided to start with Act One, and play Act Two later. The replayability is really there! I love the teamwork aspect of the game. The youngest niece had a blast playing Bruce the shark. She absolutely wrecked the rest of us. 10/10 will play again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This or thinderbirds? which is easier, yet still has depth/strategy? i hear both are pandemic-ish.**
A: This seems easier to win than Thunderbirds, at least initially.  Even the "easy" Thunderbirds setting can be daunting, but we managed to win this (barely) the first time out.  It definitely has depth and co-op strategy, though.  We figured out by the end some places to improve next time we play.  At first blush, I like it better than Pandemic -- which we even played the year-long version.  But I tend to like monsters more than diseases, so take that into account!

**Q: How does this scale down to two players? I would primarily be playing this with one other person.**
A: Having played it quite a few times the more players the harder it gets.  I would say 2 to 3 being the best with solo play being the easiest.

**Q: Is there an Abbott & Costello expansion in the pipeline for this game?**
A: Check BoardGameGeek for printable fan expansions that include Phantom of the Opera and The Fly monster sheets and Abbott and Costello hero card for this awesome game.

**Q: Are the monsters 3D printed or die cast?**
A: They are plastic injection molded.  Mass production precludes the use of 3D printing due to its inefficiency.
