Wild Pirates
Published 1989
A card-game ala "Oh, Hell" with a nautical theme and a nicely illustrated board. Players must attempt to win tricks in order to advance their ship on a board from a start point to Treasure Island in the center. The trick-taking aspect is pretty straightforward (trumps and lead-cards, etc.) while the board adds spaces that shift your ships, allow you to be safe against opponent's ships, etc. Nice, easy, rarely discussed little game.
