North Star Games is hoping to attract some attention to its Happy Salmon game when the new version, Happy Salmon:  Blue, releases next month by offering the Happy Salmon:  Blue Launch Promo.

The Happy Salmon:  Blue Launch Promo features a large net, much like those used to catch fish, along with the hardware required to hang it and 20 carabiners that can be used to attach copies of Happy Salmon directly to the net.  The promotion is restricted to brick & mortar retail stores only, and is limited to one net per store.  In order to get their net, participating stores must order 24 copies of the green edition of Happy Salmon and 8 copies of the new blue edition.

Happy Salmon:  Blue is a stand-alone version of the game that can be combined with the original to allow games with up to 12 players (see “ACD Games Day Round-up”).  Happy Salmon has been a surprise hit for North Star, earning critical acclaim as well as the 2017 Origins Award for the best “Family Game of the Year” at this summer’s Origins Game Fair (see “2017 Origins Award Winners”).
