Description
Lifeboats is a thrilling negotiation game where 3 to 6 players must work together and against each other to survive a boating accident. The goal is to get your lifeboat to one of the nearby islands, but only one boat can make progress each turn. Players must convince each other to vote for their boat, all while navigating the chaos of sailors jumping between boats and leaks springing up. As the game unfolds, alliances are formed and broken, and players must make tough decisions to stay alive. With its unique blend of negotiation, simultaneous action selection, and player elimination, Lifeboats is a wild and unpredictable ride. Designed by Ronald Wettering and first published in 1993, this classic game is easy to learn but challenging to master, making it a great fit for parties and game nights with friends.
