Playing Time: 20 Minutes
Weight: Light
Genre: Betrayal Engine
Designer: Shane Steely, Jared Tinney
Players: 3-5
A light, breezy filler game. Each player controls a couple of absolutely dogshit pirates, whose disgraceful conduct has finally earned the wrath of your boss pirate, who would very much like to throw the whole lot of you to the kraken. Your goal is to be the last to go in the drink.
Rounds pass with players simultaneously revealing cards to play. Cards offer simple effects, such as pushing another meeple out, pulling one of their own pirates in, or even extending or shortening the gangplank. Surviving will take a massive frenzy of short-sighted asshattery of the silliest sort.
