Who it's for
Families who want a beautiful, thematic pirate race with accessible mechanics.
Not for you ifβ¦
You want deep strategy. Dice and card draws create significant luck in this racing game.
Race pirate ships around Jamaica in this beautifully produced family game. Each round, the captain rolls two dice and everyone simultaneously programs their ship using action cards: load cargo, load food, or move forward or backward. Combat happens when ships share a space, resolved by rolling cannon dice. The treasure hold limits what you can carry, forcing tough choices about gold, gunpowder, and food. Stunning production with a metal compass doubloon, detailed ship miniatures, and a gorgeous board. The prettiest pirate race on any shelf.
