The Treasure of Isla Tortuga

Players explore pirate-infested waters by building a ship tableau of decks, objects, treasures and crew while drawing from a shared deck in a push‑your‑luck reveal mechanic. On a turn the active player flips cards trying to gather useful pieces for their ship: each card costs and provides one of four resources, so revealed cards both enable and consume future purchases. Revealing three identical disaster flags ends the plunder, while an All Aboard! card lets the active player attempt to board another player and steal cards instead. Players expand ship capacity, recruit crew for defense or boarding, and collect treasures for victory points; timing and risk management determine success.

    Cool Push Your Luck game, winner of the most important Spanish Board Games contest

    Very good game, Easy to play, quick to learn. I'm pleasantly surprised about the easiness of play, duration (less than 20 minutes) and also until the end you can't see who is the winner. Also is a very good family game, ideal to introduce kids on filler games.
