Treasure Island

Published 2003

A pirate-themed game where players explore treasure islands and try to collect as many treasures as possible. Each turn a player rolls two dice. Then each player chooses one of the numbers and places his or her counter on a square marked with that number. The goal is to "cut off" areas from the rest of the board and thus claim treasures that might be within. The game includes two boards. The smaller is suitable for 2-4 players and plays in 45 minutes. The larger is for 2-6 players and takes about 90 minutes to play.
