Fantastic tactical puzzle game. Only a few hours in and I can tell this is going to eat up a lot of my time. Just crunchy enough to really feel like everything is under my control, but not so complicated that I can't hold it all in my head. Easy recommendation!

About This Game
Key Features:
Choose Your Captain: Your journey begins by choosing a captain, each with unique abilities, starting health, and savvy—an essential resource for deploying crewmates. Your captain is the core of your team, as enemies only target them. Pick wisely to suit your playstyle and adapt to the threats ahead!
Build Your Crew: Rescue and recruit crewmates with unique skills and abilities to bolster your pirate force. Every crewmate brings something special to the fight—whether it’s unleashing devastating combo chains or supporting your captain in creative ways. Manage your crew carefully, as you can make crewmates walk the plank to bring in new recruits with even stronger potential!
Master Elemental Combat: Both captains and crewmates are aligned to one of three elements: Steel, Smoke, or Salt, each with its own mechanics and strategies:
- Steel: The aggressive option, Steel focuses on boosting attack power, controlling positioning on the board, and utilizing extra savvy as a resource.
- Smoke: The element of combos and trickery. Smoke uses ammo and can apply the Smoking debuff. Smoke excels in crowd control, affecting all enemies on the board and using knockback abilities.
- Salt: For tactical minds, Salt specializes in controlling the battlefield, using health as a resource, and employing the Submerge mechanic, preventing enemies from attacking or being attacked. With careful planning, Salt can turn the tide of battle with precise strikes.
Collect Cursed Treasure and Manage the Curse: As you gather cursed treasure, your crew grows increasingly afflicted. Deploying afflicted crew members raises your curse meter, and if full by the end of a round, all Creeps on the board become stronger.
Dive into the world of Sunken Stones—where strategic thinking, careful crew management, and a sharp eye for combos will guide you through danger. Will you rise above the curse and become the master of the high seas? Or will your crew succumb to the sinister power of cursed treasure? The ocean awaits your command!

Very fun and addictive. I like the mechanic where you can change your hand/crew during battles and how it balances with the penalties you get from opening chests. I had to be careful with how I used the crew and give a well thought to the cards I needed with the captain I was playing. For later captains I was unlocking, the more challenging I found the game, but in the good way. Their advantages were interesting but their weaknesses were also more noticeable, so you play them with a different strategy. I recommend the game!
It is a fun little distraction that will let your time slip away if you aren't paying attention. Mechanics are cool and combos are expected, Some much stronger than others. Some balancing is definitely in order because some unit(s) can be auto-wins if used correctly. Lots of information comes at you fast at the start, don't press anything until you properly digest each snippet of info or you might skip and put yourself at a serious disadvantage.
Fun stuff. Easy to get into, characters have unique and interesting effects. Some of the mechanics could be better explained but definitely something I would sink hours into.
Great little tactical card game. Lay down crew members to combat the perils of the sea! Different captains and crew to play with, all with different effects and combinations. Pretty simple but good fun!
