About this game

Crash Octopus turns your table into open water, a giant octopus in the middle, and cargo just floating there waiting to be flicked home. You flick anchors to steer your ship, then flick treasure toward it, chest by gem by gold, hoping it actually lands instead of sailing off the table. Get greedy and knock the wrong bead loose, and the octopus swings a tentacle at everyone's careful piles. First to load all five cargo types wins, but half the fun is the collective wince every time someone's flick goes catastrophically wrong.
