Position your team optimally on your pirate ship to get as many points as possible by playing out your cards, without one of your pirates going overboard.
You can find the complete rules here The
There are as many rounds played as people participate in the game.
50 cards (1 - 12 in 4 colours and 1 and 13)
24 pirate figures (6 in 4 colors)
6 planks
All cards are distributed evenly - other cards are placed in the middle.
In 2 and 3 players the 1 and 12 are left out.
Then you select the side of your plank (ascending or descending) and place your 4 pirates on it, with several figures on the same field.
Who starts to play one card - all the others after that also go.
The displayed color must be used.
If you can't, you can put any other card.
The stitch is then evaluated (including the cards in the middle of the table):
a) all individual cards (colors of which only 1 card is in the set) are pushed into the middle of the table.
b) Colors with multiple cards in the game:
Who has placed the highest card of the respective color moves his corresponding pirates by 1 level on the plank up, who has put the lowest one down.
If you have to pull a pirate up or down over the plank, this pirate falls into the water and is out of the game for this passage.
If the highest or lowest card of the color is in the middle of the table, no pirate is moved for these cards.
Yes, ma'am!
This card has the value of 8 and is once in every color in the game.
When playing, you have to follow the usual rules.
If this card is in a trick, the person with the highest card of this color must move their corresponding pirates instead of 1 field by 2 fields.
Just a second to eat.
This card has the value of 5 and is in every color once in the game.
When playing, you have to follow the usual rules.
If this card is in a stitch, the person with the lowest card of this color must move their corresponding pirates instead of 1 field by 2 fields.
Monkeys
This card has the value 0 and takes the color when playing.
So you can put this card in every trick, whether you have the color on your hand or not.
If this card is the first in the set, the next played card determines the color.
The monkey is the lowest card of the color it takes.
So you're going down the pirates of that color in any case.
First mate
This card has the value of 13 and takes the color when playing.
So you can put this card in every trick, whether you have the color on your hand or not.
If this card is the first in the set, the next played card determines the color.
The First Maat is the highest card of the color he takes. So you're going up the pirates of that color in any case.
Single cards remain in the middle of the table after the evaluation.
Those who have played the highest card in the last trick put the first card of the new trick.
In the case of a tie, who last played the highest card.
You will repeat this until you have played all the cards on your hand.
Then this passage ends and you get points for all the pirates who are still on your plank.
Accordingly, as many passes are played as people participate.
The game is won by those who have collected the most points after the last pass.
Here is the third player of the old pirate king (with a hidden pile):
a) He still thinks he is the king and therefore always plays the first card in the lurch.
b) He does not understand the game and therefore simply always reveals the top card of his stack and lays it (with a sluggish grin) before him.
The color of this card is the color.
c) Now both of you choose one card from your hand and place it on the table.
If possible, you must use the color you are playing.
Then you uncover the cards at the same time and evaluate the trick as usual.
d) His ship has long since fallen, so he has no plank and no crew.
This is why he does not move any characters if he plays the highest or lowest card.
