About the Game

The pirate's map is a single sheet print and play game, for 1 to 4 players (although you can play more without problems) with many dice rolls, ideal for those players who enjoy games where you have to draw. A quick game for any number of players (30min) where you can have fun snatching the best treasures from your rivals using simple drawings.

Players will take the role of ambitious pirates who explore the seas with the aim of obtaining the greatest loot. To do this, the pirates will draw a map where they will record their misdeeds and discoveries.

The pirate's map is a roll and write game with simultaneous turns. The active player will roll 3 dice. All players will use 2 of them to determine a location on their map, and the remaining die indicates the symbol to draw. Two of the dice are white, ALL players will be able to virtually modify their values by spending rum. The black die can be used ONLY by the active player, both with the visible value and its opposite, giving him more possibilities.

On the game sheet there are areas with which you can interact using the symbols that you draw on your map; these will give you different rewards to increase or make your treasure more valuable.

The game lasts an undetermined number of turns, until one player fills their treasure chest, one player gets 3 skulls (they have gone 3 turns without drawing on their map), or no one draws anything on a turn. The player with the most valuable treasure will be the winner.
