About the Game

Butim (Spoil, in portuguese) is a competitive pirate game where players compete with each other for the best equipment, pieces of maps and hidden treasures. It's a party game of luck and strategy where you will cheat, steal, bother and disrupt the lives of your opponents. There is no honor among pirates! There is no elimination, that is, who enters the game stays until the end and everyone has a chance to win.

Butim is a card game that tells the story of the Bloody Islands Archipelago. These islands were used by generations of pirates to hide the biggest secrets that sailed the 7 seas. But all the pirates who buried their treasures there, also armed the most terrible traps so that these treasures stay properly protected. It was a beautiful and deadly place. However, as every story has an end, on a beautiful day a mysterious maelstrom opened near the islands and is leaching the islands with all this wealth to the bottom of the ocean. The objective of the game is to remove as many treasures as possible from these islands before they vanish forever. The player who has more wealth at the end of the game is declared the winner.

During the game you draw resources and cards, dig the islands (draw island cards) looking for maps and treasures and play special cards. At the end of a round cards are removed from the islands to the maelstrom. The game ends when a number of islands were totally removed.
