Only one can claim this title—will it be you?

Prove your worth and become the Pirate King by facing challenges that will test your luck. In Pirate King!, every decision matters, and only those capable of mastering their ambition will claim the pirate throne. Across 7 rounds, you'll compete against other captains to build the best deck of cards while avoiding the dreaded curses lurking in the seven seas.

Each player starts by choosing a captain and an initial deck, while the market and monster cards are placed in the center of the table. Every captain is unique, so choose wisely, as their abilities will aid you on your journey.

During the game, players will simultaneously reveal cards from their decks, one by one, deciding each turn whether to keep risking or stop before luck turns against them. If a player reveals three curses (skulls), they explode and lose all the resources they’ve gained that round, falling to the last position.

Those who manage their luck well will gather valuable resources, such as gold and swords, to trade for powerful market cards or defeat terrifying monsters. These cards provide victory points and special abilities to help you get ahead of your rivals. However, greed is always lurking, and it could leave you empty-handed if you don’t play carefully.

After seven rounds, the player with the most victory points will be crowned the one and only Pirate King.
