Bermuda Pirates

Treasures and dangerous waters

 

In the infamous Bermuda Triangle, pirates want to loot treasure from a far-flung island. This island in the middle of the board is filled with treasures in four colors, and each pirate begins with his boat on the starting island of the same color and takes - in relation to the desired degree of difficulty - zero to three buoys.

As the active player you move your boat towards the island or one of the treasures floating in the sea; to move the boat you can only use one finger, placed at the back of the boat. If you arrive at your target, you load a treasure into your boat - your boat must touch the landing stage or the floating treasure for loading and you can only take treasures in colors that are not yet secured on your starting island. After loading, you either return to your starting island to secure the treasure or move on to collect other treasures. If you want, you can place or relocate a buoy or remove one from the board .

When the boat is stopped by a vortex = magnet, you lose treasures from your boat, unless they land on your own island - or if your boat is grounded by an obstacle or moves off board, or if you return to your starting island, your turn ends. Buoys can mark vortexes or be put on safe positions to trick other players. If you have a treasure of each color on your island, you win at the end of the round. Includes a version „Schatzraub“ with the option to steal treasure from other players‘ starting islands.

Hunting for treasures is fun, vortexes are well hidden and always somewhere else due to the modular set-up of the board. The magnetic effect works very well and the beautiful components add to the fun to play. True summer family fun!
