Who it's for

Two people who want a short historical hidden-movement duel with real deduction on both sides of the table.

Not for you if…

Asymmetric sides that need a couple of plays each before they feel fair are not your thing.

Vibe's take

Cat-and-mouse and nervy – hiding well means doing little, but doing little loses, so both sides keep being forced to show a hand.

About this game

A two-player hidden-movement duel over Blackbeard's last months, where one side hides an anchorage among the Carolina inlets and the other spends hard currency on informants to narrow the search.
