Why I chose this game

Dr. Reiner Knizia is maybe the most wellknown board game designer in the world. With over 600 designed games, the mathemetics PhD has won many awards. I like many of his designs, I like deck building and racing games.

First impressions

The third edition (2022) comes with a few extra’s including awesome miniatures for each player pirate. 

Why I keep playing

Expansions

Heroes & Hexes does add a bit to the complexity and play time, but we like it a lot! The helping animals are super cute, the heroes very very powerful, but don’t shift the entire game. You’re able to buy way more cards and plenty of new cards are added to to the market. The demons can be a nuisance. We do recommend the expansion!
