The Game of Life: Pirates of the Caribbean – Dead Man's Chest (2006)

About this game

This GoL version is based on the PotC films. Players join Captain Jack Sparrow and move their ships across the Caribbean - raiding ships, visiting ports, fighting cannibals, and gathering booty, all while avoiding Davey Jones and his Kraken. The player that reaches Isla Cruces with the most treasure wins.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 9 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
