Would it be possible to make this aspect read right side up when focused on with an ALT zoom? As it stands, it reads out pivoted 90 degrees, because the card goes longways. Which is shame, because I'm really enjoying this aspect!

I think you should be able to rotate the aspect card while zoomed in on it, using the same keys as normal (Q and E in default keybindings)! I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying the aspect, thanks!

1. Very very cool, love the theme and mechanical ideas!
2. Would also appreciate a fix to the card's rotation when viewed with ALT. While you can use Q and E to rotate the zoomed in view, this then rotates the zoomed in view of *all game components*, which is a pain to have to undo and redo repeatedly when reading all the text on the aspect.
3. In "Bait the Kraken with Morsels," it says "After Invaders Drown in an Ocean, add one [Deeps]." Is this *per* invader piece that got drowned, or for any number (IE if the kraken drags back three explorers, is that three deeps tokens? In either case, there's probably a more specific wording possible.
4. When the Kraken is moving as a result of the bottom effect of Emerge to Sieze Prey, I assume each Push is handled independently? The question here is, if the Kraken can currently carry 3 health of invaders, can it pick up and drop off stuff on its way back to the ocean? I think it's the phrasing of "Do this until..." which is tripping me up which doesn't make it clear if this is a series of Pushes, or one weirdly long Push (because we have seen unusually long pushes and gathers in things like Many Minds special rule).

1) Thanks again!

2) Ah, I was not aware of that. I'll have to look more seriously into the issue.

3) I wanted to save space, but it seems like clarifying it as "After an Action that Drowns1 or more Invaders in an Ocean..." is worthwhile.

4) It can switch out what it is Bringing between every Push, yes. (They are independent Push instructions).

Excellent, thank you very much! My wife loves Oceans and I think she'll have a blast with Kraken!

Awesome. I have a PDF for printing that I can provide you, if you want:

(The special rule for Kraken is updated according to your point #3, BTW!)

Yes, you can move the Incarna into inlands lands with the new Innate Power. Incarna do not have to count as presence, and it is only Ocean's presence that is restricted from moving into the inland. This means that you can also move the Incarna into the inland with Beasts-moving Actions (such as some Event cards), by not counting it as a presence while doing so.

Sorry, I don't have a video. But if you have any questions as to how anything works, please post them here and I will try to answer them.
