Description
Get ready to shake things up in the world of Puerto Rico with the Buccaneer expansion, designed by Andreas Seyfarth and released in 2019. This exciting addition to the base game introduces a new role, the Buccaneer, which allows players to take on a life of piracy and plunder. When you choose the Buccaneer role, you'll have four options to choose from, each with its own unique benefits and opportunities. You can remove goods from transport ships and store them for yourself, plunder the trading house and earn victory points, raid the colonist ship and use the colonists on your island, or kidnap an unused role and take its doubloons. The Buccaneer role adds a new layer of strategy and excitement to the game, as you'll need to decide which option to choose and when. You'll also need to keep an eye on your opponents, as they may try to take the Buccaneer role and steal your Reward card. The Reward card is a special bonus that you'll receive when you take the Buccaneer role, and it stays with you until another player takes the role. With two to five players, you can expect a game to take around 90 to 150 minutes, giving you plenty of time to explore the new possibilities and challenges that the Buccaneer expansion offers. The rules are of normal complexity, so if you're already familiar with board games, you should have no trouble learning this expansion. The Buccaneer expansion is a great way to breathe new life into the classic game of Puerto Rico, and it's easy to learn and integrate into your existing game. The new role and options add a fresh layer of strategy and excitement, and the Reward card mechanic adds a fun and unpredictable element to the game. With its normal complexity and engaging gameplay, the Buccaneer expansion is perfect for fans of the base game looking to try something new, or for new players looking to experience the world of Puerto Rico in a new way. So gather your friends, set sail for the high seas, and get ready for a swashbuckling adventure with the Buccaneer expansion.
