Das verfluchte Piratengold

Black coins carry blackbeard‘s Curse

On Black Island, players as adventurers have found Captain Blackbeard’s treasure and want to split it. Among the gold coins there are also black coins; they are cursed and summon Captain Blackbeard and his ship. The board is prepared; treasure chest cards and parrot cards are set out. The pirate ship is with a player and marks the starting player. Beginning with the starting player, players in turn have one dip into the bag to draw out as many coins as they want. If you drew gold coins, you put them in your slit in the board into your chest. However, if one or more black coin are among your draw, you put one black coin on the island spaces on the board and all the other black and gold coins go back into the bag. When the last slot for a black coin on the island is filled, the round ends and all count their coins in the chest cases beneath the board; whoever has fewest coins, draws two parrot cards. Then all players receive treasure chest cards in relation to their coin total including those depicted on parrot cards, up to a maximum of four treasure chest cards. Then the ship is passed to the next player, and a new round begins. After as many rounds as there a players, each one was starting player once, and the ship has rounded the island, so to say, you win with most treasure cards depicting treasure chests filled with gold. In case of a draw you win with the highest total of all treasure chest cards.

A game driven only by chance; parrot cards provide a bit of compensation for bad luck in your draws from the bag, and then you can only hope to be drawing only gold-filled treasure chest cards.
