Ahoy Treasures! (2006)

About this game

A group of pirates has found a treasure map. Now they race to this isle to find the most valuable treasures. Players in turn roll a die and move one of their pawns. Pirates that land on the same field are stacked; only the top one may move. You are forced to move if you can, even if this lands you in the water (which sends your pirate back to the start / out of game, depending on the variant used). You have to reach the treasure isle with a matching roll. The first one to land there gets the smallest chest (one point), the last one five points. The player with the most treasure (highest sum of points) wins. Ages 5+

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 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
