Description of Rum & Pirates board game
The wild pirates hoard gathers around the notorious Red Corsair, who has led them on many successful raids. Now, they have retired to their secret pirates nest in the Caribbean for a little rest and relaxation. There, they search for coins, rum, treasure maps and treasure chests. They also encounter the city guard and visit the pubs for drinking bouts. When all is done, the player with the most honor points will win the game!
The players take on the roles of pirates. They move the captain along the alleys of the pirates nest, looking for treasure maps and treasure chests. Or they meet the city guard and deal with them if they can. Naturally, they will visit the few pubs to gather and drink some rum together. They will also have opportunities to acquire the special wares needed by pirates like wooden legs and eye patches. At the end of the day, they head back to the ship and wrangle for the few sleeping places available there. All these activities earn the players tiles, which are worth honor points - most positive, but some are negative. These honor points are tallied at game end. Who will gain the most honor points ?
