Cutthroat Cove: Pieces of Eight (2022)

About this game

Cutthroat Cove: Pieces of Eight is a quick card game for 2-4 players that combines elements of Blackjack and Old Maid. Players take turns swapping and stealing treasures in hopes that they will have gathered 8 Gold coins when the game ends. However, players that exceed 8 or have a cursed treasure in their possession will be tossed to the sea!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
