Description

In Pirate Tales, you'll embark on thrilling adventures as a pirate captain, navigating the seven seas and relying on the luck of your dice to succeed. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 4 players can join in on the fun, competing to accumulate the most doubloons and diamonds in just 45 to 60 minutes. As you upgrade your ship and improve your dice hand, you'll need to use your wits to outmaneuver your fellow captains and avoid the dangers that lurk beneath the waves, like the legendary Kraken. As you play, you'll have the chance to use cards to gain useful actions or protection, helping you to stay safe and ahead of the game. But when it's not your turn, you can still get in on the action by bidding on the success or failure of your fellow players. Will you bet on their triumph or their demise? With its unique blend of betting, bluffing, and luck, Pirate Tales is a game that's full of excitement and unpredictability. Designed by Benno Thönelt and published in 2023, this base game is a must-play for fans of card games, dice games, and pirate-themed adventures. So gather your crew and set sail for a swashbuckling good time – will you emerge as the richest and most glorious captain of them all?
