First, there was a literal flood when I spilled a glass of water all over the tiles and cards. We dried up as best we could and continued the game.
As you can see from the following picture, the game itself was a near run thing. Most of the island had sunk when we found the last treasure. If the waters rose any more, we would be goners. Fortunately, the helicopter arrived in the nick of time.
To make our escape even more dramatic, Hurricane Onyx bore down on us. Fortunately,we got away just in time.
I really like Forbidden Island. I play this occasionally with my two children (10 and 11) and we currently play at the second level. Next game will be one more (elite). Not looking forward to that one - our games are always very very close.
