Pirate Game

OBJECT OF THE GAME

Yellowbeard the pirate is on a mission to capture vast amounts of treasure from the King of Spain. The King's Navy has sent 5 men-of-war to the New World to protect his treasure, which is held on a number of islands. But the Navy has no idea from which of 11 harbours the pirate ship has departed, and its movements are cloaked in secrecy. The only clue to the pirates' location is when a treasure chest goes missing, or occasionally when the pirate ship is spotted through the telescope. Yellowbeard's goal is to steal 6 treasure chests and escape to a safe harbour without being sunk by one of the Navy's vessels.
