This is a fast-paced cooperative party game about survival on a deserted island.
A ship is wrecked. Some crew members and passengers manage to reach the island. There is very little food and water, there will definitely not be enough for everyone. In addition to all the troubles, a terrible hurricane is approaching. To save themselves, the victims of the shipwreck must build a raft and get out of here as quickly as possible.
Staying alive
Players receive starting wreckage cards. Participants take turns. During the game, they can negotiate and discuss their actions.
Game round
The game consists of rounds. At the beginning of each round (except the first), the first player`s card is passed to the next participant clockwise. A new weather card opens. Then the players perform one action each.
The active player can:
- Catch fish. The player blindly draws a ball from the bag. The number of fish on it is the same as the number of food they can get. The food marker on the counter moves the same number of spaces.
- Collect water. The water marker on the counter moves the same number of spaces as the amount of precipitation shown on the current weather card.
- Find wood for a raft.When going to the forest for wood, the player predicts how many units of wood he will be able to collect - from 1 to 5 - and randomly draws the same number of balls from the bag. If all the balls are light, the player gets wood. The wood marker moves in a circle: when it reaches «6», 1 raft card is added. If at least one of the drawn balls turns out to be dark, the player is stung by a poisonous snake. The player is considered sick. The sick person is unable to vote, perform an action, and play debris cards.
- Search for debris. Get a card from the debris deck into his hand.
After performing one action, the participants spend 1 unit of water and 1 unit of food. Water / food is taken from the counter. If there is not enough food / water for everyone, the participants can play the cards of the corresponding resource. If there is still not enough, the players decide who to expel. The exiles immediately die of thirst or hunger.
At the end of the round, the survivors check the end of the game conditions.
End of the game
- Victory. Players can safely sail away from the island on a raft if all survivors are fed and drink, there is at least 1 food and 1 water in the reserve, and there are at least 1 raft cards as many as the remaining players.
- Hurricane. If a card with a hurricane is revealed, this round becomes the last. Players must leave the island on a raft. Otherwise, everyone loses.
- Everyone dies of hunger or thirst. This is also a fiasco.
