Description

In We're Sinking!, you and your fellow pirates are on a ship under siege, and it's up to you to work together to repair the ship and defeat the threats that lurk in the waters. With 3 to 6 players, this game is all about making tough decisions and negotiating with your crew to survive. Each turn, you'll choose from four actions - Bucket, Patch, Fire, and Plunder - which you'll select secretly using hidden compass dials, adding an element of bluffing and surprise to the game. As the ship takes damage, you'll need to discuss and decide with your crew which actions to take, all while keeping an eye on the treasure and trying to stay one step ahead of your fellow players. As the game unfolds, you'll be constantly changing your strategy based on how close you think the ship is to sinking, and how trustworthy your fellow mates are. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 45 to 90 minutes, We're Sinking! is a thrilling game that's perfect for pirate fans and newcomers alike. Published in 2024 and designed by Joseph Frederick, this base game is a must-play for anyone who loves nautical adventures, bluffing, and negotiation. Will you emerge victorious with the largest treasure score, or will you be the pirate who survives to tell the tale by having the fewest cards in hand? In We're Sinking!, only time will tell.
