Flip harbor cards for gold, but push too far and lose everything. Hire crew for permanent powers.
Vibe's take
push-your-luck tension, quick card play, pirate theme, portable, engine-building lite
Who it's for
Anyone wanting a quick, tense card game with surprising depth for its size and price.
Not for you if…
You want strategic control. Push-your-luck means the deck can end your turn at any moment.
Flip cards from a shared deck to reveal ships and people in the harbor. Ships earn gold when you stop flipping, but push too far and a matching ship type ends your turn with nothing. Spend earned gold to hire people who provide permanent abilities and victory points. The push-your-luck flipping creates tension every single turn, and the hired crew builds a light engine of discounts and bonuses. Plays fast, packs small, and delivers more drama per minute than its tiny price tag suggests.
