Glory Islands
In Glory Islands, you'll be strategizing to drop off your scurvy crew onto various spaces, aiming to win treasure and rack up points through a delightful mix of game mechanics that come together seamlessly. The movement of your ship is determined by playing numeric cards from your hand, which also feature special powers, like the five card allowing you to pause and drop a second pirate. But beware—using too many high-value cards will cost you points at the end of the game. Securing an island space grants you small bonuses, and once an island is full, the player with the most crew members there scores a significant number of points.
Glory Islands is a fast-paced, enjoyable, and family-friendly board game. While it might not have the depth to keep hardcore hobbyists engaged over multiple plays, it's incredibly fun, especially when you snag it at this sale price. Striking the right balance between performing well in the race, hitting the spaces you need to score with your crew, and avoiding penalties for reckless sailing is surprisingly challenging. There's genuine tension as you watch where other players place their sailors, as islands you thought were secure can quickly shift out of your control.
The game also comes with charming wooden ships and sailor pieces, along with miniature barrels of rum, making you feel like a true pirate king.
