Pirate Plank (2010)

About this game

The pirate captain has forced four pirates to walk the plank and jump into the shark-filled water. In this game you build the die and try to push your comrades into the water - and keep your own pirate standing on the plank. Last man standing wins the game in what one might call a reversed race... A title in the Series: LEGO Games series, where you build the game with Lego bricks, even the die. The set also includes suggestions for alternate rules.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
