Why Play Pirates? Immersive Adventure, Real Skills

Experience the thrill of piracy without complex rules:

Versatile Roles: Score points as a Merchant (safe cargo runs), Pirate (steal and capture), or Bounty Hunter (sink outlaws)—adapt your strategy mid-game.
Simultaneous Ship Movement: Like Sails of Glory or X-Wing, predict enemy paths for devastating broadsides or evasive tactics.
Hidden Damage & Tense Choices: Secret cards conceal hits—will they sink or strike back? Manage repairs like sails, hulls, or guns under pressure.
Bluffing & Negotiation: Outwit opponents with mind games, alliances, and betrayals—builds real-world leadership and decision-making skills.
