Save Doctor Lucky
It is April 14, 1912, and the ship is taking on water while an optimistic elderly doctor meanders through its corridors. Players move their pawns around the sinking liner to collect and play items that will convince the doctor to board a lifeboat. Turns combine movement and hand-management: play cards to aid the rescue or foil other players by forcing failures. The game emphasizes timing and position as the doctor’s route and other players’ interference determine whether a rescue attempt succeeds before the ship goes down.
