Port Royal (Händler der Karibik)

Product Information

The additional content of the Gold Edition was also included in the 1.30 patch for this version of the game, and was the foundation for the international version. Spellings The aim is becoming Governor. To achieve this, trading and completing missions (finding the player character's captured mother and sister or a buried treasure) is required.

Expedition, which remains above the harbor until a player fulfills it by discarding people who have the items required for the expedition.It’s a little hard to decide where Port Royal falls in the spectrum of gaming. The small-sized box and the fact that the entire game is just 120 cards, makes me think it would be a filler game. Finally the remaining person cards provide benefits on a player’s turn. The Governor is worth 0 victory points, and costs 8 coins, but allows the player to select an additional card on their turn. The Admiral card gives players an immediate 2 coins any time there are 5 or more cards in the Harbor when it is their turn to choose a card. Finally, the Jester card gives players an immediate coin if there are NO cards in the Harbor when it is their turn to choose a card.

Each turn takes place over two phases: If you draw a second ship of the same color, you bust out and your turn is over. Cards are taken one by one - so the ability of one card may be immediately used for the next card taken. Trade Alex wants to repel the Flute with 2 . Since his Sailor gives him 1 . and his Pirate 2 he has a total of 3 and he succeeds.When expedition cards are drawn, they’re immediately placed to the side in view of all players. When a player hires a person who allows them to fulfill an expedition card, they discard the person cards and place the expedition card in front of them. Just like person cards, the expedition card features points, benefits, and cost. The benefit is received immediately when a player takes an expedition card. Tax Increases The winner is the player with the most points, with the player with the most coins in their hand breaking ties. Round-Up Once all players have bought or declined, your turn is over, the rest of the cards in the display discarded and the next player takes their turn. The first player to 12 victory points wins. After you’ve chosen a card to buy, each of your opponents will get to buy a card from the left overs. The active player must first draw a card from the draw pile to put into the middle of the table - this will form the harbor display. Now he has to decide if he wants to draw another card or stop. He can continue to make this decision until he stops voluntarily or 2 identically colored ships are in the harbor display (see below) which would force him to forfeit the rest of his turn. Should he stop, the 2nd phase begins. Port Royal ended up being a pretty fun and well designed card game. It’s easy to learn rules and overall light complexity help make its way to my gaming table quite often. I enjoyed how there are many ways to approach victory and how each player can stay invested in the game even when it’s not their turn.
