Ahoy there! Faith and Jared are at the kid's table today as we discuss the push your luck, crew building game Captain Flip.
Game Overview
Captain Flip is a family-friendly strategy game that combines push-your-luck mechanics with crew-building elements. In this game, players take on the roles of pirate captains aiming to recruit the best crew and collect the most treasure.
- Each turn, players draw a tile from a bag. They can either keep the tile as it is or flip it to reveal the other side. Once flipped, the decision is final.
- Players place the tiles on their personal boards, strategically positioning crew members to maximize their scores. Different crew members, such as navigators, cannoneers, and cartographers, offer various benefits and scoring opportunities.
- The game involves a significant element of risk, as players must decide whether to keep a tile or take a chance by flipping it. This adds excitement and tension to each turn.
- Completing columns on the board can earn players bonuses. The game ends when a player’s board is mostly filled, and the player with the highest score wins.
