Who it's for

Groups and families who love physical dexterity games and the drama of a genuinely wobbling model that punishes bad placement.

Not for you if…

You prefer decisions over dexterity, or a game that hinges on steady hands and gravity feels too random for you.

Vibe's take

Giddy and physical, full of held breath and groans as the ship tips and your carefully placed cargo rains down.

About this game

A wobbly dexterity game where players load wooden bottles, sailors, rats and crates onto a swaying model ship hung on a swinging mast. Everyone secretly picks a numbered space, then places a piece there. Balance it wrong and cargo tumbles off, and whatever you fail to catch you have to load again. First to empty their pile wins.
