Ahoy Treasures!

About this board game

Ahoy Treasures! is a 20-minute pirate racing game for 2–4 players, ages 5 and up, in which players roll and move their pawns to reach a treasure island.

A treasure map has led a group of pirates to an isle, and everyone is racing to find the most valuable rewards. On your turn, roll the die and move one of your pawns according to the result.

Pirates that land on the same field are stacked on top of one another. Only the pirate at the top of a stack may move, creating a simple positional challenge as players try to keep their own pawns moving while affecting the others.

You must move if a legal move is available, even when the result sends your pirate into the water. Depending on the variant being used, a pirate in the water returns to the start or is removed from the game.

• Roll a die and move one of your pawns.
• Stack pirates when they share a field.
• Move the top pirate when a stack is formed.
• Reach the treasure island with a matching roll.

Reaching the treasure island requires an exact matching roll. The first player to land there receives the smallest chest, worth one point, while the last player to arrive receives the five-point chest. The player whose treasure adds up to the highest score wins.

With its straightforward movement rules, forced decisions, and changing stacks of pirates, Ahoy Treasures! offers a compact race with an easy-to-follow scoring goal and a choice of water rules.
