Description

Get ready to set sail with Buccaneer, a pirate-themed board game designed by Stefan Dorra. In this easy-to-learn game, 3 to 5 players compete to collect ship cards by bidding with chips. The twist is that you can steal chips from other players by placing one of your chips or stacks on top of theirs, giving you control of the entire stack. However, you'll have to wait until your next turn to use the stack to buy a ship, giving others a chance to snatch it away. With a playtime of just 30 minutes, Buccaneer is a quick and exciting game that's perfect for a fun night with friends. The game's auction and memory mechanics add a layer of strategy, as you try to remember which ships are worth the most and outbid your opponents. With no necessary in-game text, Buccaneer is accessible to players of all languages, making it a great choice for groups with diverse backgrounds.
