   Everything else is there and extremely well made. And it seems all I can do is send the whole thing back. Arrgh!

   Lustiges Spiel für möchtegern Piraten! Schöne Spielemechanik mit Wirtschaftskreislauf und etwas kämpfen und Schifffahren. Plündere
   deinen Nachbarn! Macht viel Spaß. Hat mich etwas an Siedler von Catan erinnert nur witziger wegen der erweiterten Funktionalität und der Plündermöglichkeit. Wer Catan mag ist hier richtig.

   I bought this as a very last minute thought for my husband for Christmas, admittedly not expecting much. We own and have played all the Catans. We have lots of other strategy/society building style games. I couldn’t imagine anything new, fun or reimagined among the game genre, but this game was very fun. It takes awhile to read the directions. And another hot minute (an hour or more) to learn the rules and play a whole game, but once you go through it a couple times it’s fairly quick and very enjoyable. We love the large, chunky, weighted ships. The added crew, masts and canons are cute and sturdy. The overall game play is challenging, but not difficult. We strongly recommend!

   Really like this one. It has flavors of Catan while offering a really well designed pirate theme. Can be played 2-6 players and also as a team game 2v2v2, 3v3 or asymmetrical if desired. The ships are very cool and the upgrades work well (2 cannons really make a difference!). Very happy I came across this one!

   I would like to see an expansion in the future that can improve balance slightly because much like Catan, you can be at the whims of a dice role (if you role a lot of 1s you’ll not be enjoying pirate life). I’ve seen suggestions of a ghost ship or giant kraken that chases the top player could be implemented easily. Asymmetrical ship powers would also be very cool to see.

   -1 point purely because the box was a bit damaged.

   A great game. Set up takes a bit of time but all of the pieces are of great quality and are a larger than expected size. Be sure to have a big table. Game is great for both new and experience players as luck can have an impact on what is going on in the game.

   Let me start by giving you the short review after my first 2 player game. THIS ROCKS!! Seriously it is fantastic. I’m a 38 year old gaming veteran. I was brought up playing simple classics like Hero Quest to more sophisticated games like Warhammer 40k. My preference is somewhere in the middle. This game leans more towards the casual side, but with a casual gaming group and a few beers it’s super fun. Firstly, the graphic design and component quality is off the charts. Everyone says it and it’s true. Thematically it couldn’t get any better, just look at those ships and the beautifully illustrated board pieces! The plastic tray inside the box fits everything perfectly. That in itself is beautiful design. What about the game? Well it’s simple to teach and learn. Yes, you roll dice to attack and move (which I like as to me it represents the wind) but this luck can be mitigated by buying cannons and masts. At the start of the game, my friend lost all his ships and had only 1 port left. He managed to come back and win the game! He got a few canons and bullied me around into trading resources then managed to capture a few difficult islands that I could not take. Yes, with some luck he also scored some great treasure cards. The fact that my friend could even come back from such a bad start was a real highlight and shows great game design. Then there’s the compass spinners. Again, beautiful and thematic. Such a simple way to randomly place the buried treasure which you’ll be racing around the board to collect. However, the spinners are also used to place the storm! I deliberately sailed my prized vessel directly into the storm to collect treasure and escape the double cannons of an enemy ship. The enemy did not have enough resources to enter. I was safe, it worked!! Another great highlight. For the casual gaming audience that want to chat, laugh and sink a few rums this game is a real treat. It’s also VERY reasonably priced in my opinion based on the quality. I can’t wait to play on a bigger map next game with 6 players (3 teams). Oh the chaos!! The fact that the map is randomised each game is also brilliant. My choice for an expansion would be an NPC Pirate Man O’ War or a gold Spanish Galleon. In saying that, the game is perfect as it is. It wouldn’t surprise me if some big board gaming company like Hasbro picked this game up (or just hired the designer). It’s a true classic.

   I’ve played a lot of different strategy games with friends and family, and Plunder stands out as one of the more fun and accessible ones. It mixes enough strategy to stay competitive but keeps the rules simple enough that you don’t have to spend forever teaching it.

   The pirate theme is really well done — building ships, raiding for treasure, upgrading your fleet — it all feels true to the vibe without being too complicated. The game scales well for different group sizes too — we had just as much fun with three players as we did with six.

   The quality of the board and pieces is solid, and the artwork looks sharp. If you’re looking for a new game that’s easy to learn but still feels fresh after multiple plays, Plunder is a great choice.

   Plunder is a fun game with 2-person cooperative play or 1v1 or play with larger groups. The game is well made. The pieces are sturdy and good quality. We also like that the pieces all fit nicely back in the box. We bought this game for its ability to be played with only 2 players and love that there’s more than one way to play it as such. Plunder is easy to pick up. Theres strategy, risk, rewards, and potential deviousness! We also like that each game board is randomized, so game play will always be different.
