Description
Shanghaien is a quick and simple game for two players that's all about building a team of sailors and outmaneuvering your opponent. The game is easy to learn and can be explained in no time, making it a great option for a 20-minute game night. Each round, six cards are lined up between the players, showing sailors of different nationalities or special actions that can influence the game. Players take turns rolling dice and assigning them to cards, trying to build a strong team. The goal is to have the most powerful nationality or a monopoly, which will score you victory points at the end of the game. With its pirate theme and dice-rolling mechanics, Shanghaien is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for a casual game night. Designed by Michael Schacht and Roman Pelek, Shanghaien has been entertaining players since its release in 2008.
