📖 About This Game
Have you always dreamt of being the captain of your own pirate ship ? Of recruiting your crew and boarding any ship on the horizon? If so, Brigantin is for you!
A card based game, Brigantin is one of strategy and confrontation for 2 to 4 players in the golden age of piracy. An opportunity for everyone to show that they be a real pirate and not a freshwater sailor !
With each turn of the game, the player chooses between spending his time on land or at sea. If he stays landbound he can recruit crew members, allowing him to increase the power of his ship and battle capacities. Be on the sea and attack enemy ships or ports, allowing him to win gold and Boarding Points. Collect enough Boarding points a pirate will win the game, and retire in riches.
Each player will also have a Captain with a special ability and will acquire Action cards allowing him to take advantage, attack other players, defend themselves, or even counter an attack.
