FORMAT: Print & Play

PLAYERS: 1-6

GENRES: RPG, Action Adventure

MODES: Single, Co-op, PvP

TIME: 30-45min (solo) / 30-120min (multiplayer)

The rules in both modes are virtually identical. Players use three dice in each round to sail the high seas, plunder ships and cities, trade, complete missions, avoid shallow waters, engage in various adventures and uncover buried treasures.

Players can even cooperate when attacking formidable adversaries (including each other) and uncover secret missions. Some actions, like discovering buried treasures and attacking ports, affect other players, so being aware of everyone’s progress is vital.

The game lasts 24 rounds, divided into eight seasons, with Global Events and a change in wind direction that affect all players taking place at the end of each season. Most activities give achievement points, and ultimately, the player who accumulates the most achievements, wins.
