Captains' War (2022)

About this game

Gather resources, build your crew and fight against your rivals to claim your place as the rightful Captain of the high seas. A great roll-and-write adventure for 1 to 6 players. On each player's turn. they roll dice, draft a single die unique to them, then all players pick 2 actions as detailed on the remaining dice.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 6. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
