Schatz-Rabatz

Cram as much treasure as you can into your chest, but the lid has to close.

Cap'n Snaggletooth is retiring and will leave his ship to whichever pirate brings back the fullest chest. Players race to pack treasures into their own chest, with one hard rule: the lid has to close. Whatever does not fit goes to Jewels Jack the boatman as payment for the crossing.

Who it's for

Families with kids from five who enjoy spatial fiddling, and anyone who likes a game where you are physically doing something the whole time.

Not for you if…

Speed and spatial pressure stress out your youngest player, since fine motor skills decide a lot here. Published 2015 and no longer easy to find new.

Vibe's take

Frantic and hands-on, with everyone stuffing and re-stuffing while the lid refuses to shut. The moment of paying the boatman lands somewhere between relief and pain.
