In *Glory Islands*, you'll be strategically deploying your crew across the board, aiming to secure treasures and rack up points through a delightful mix of mechanics that blend seamlessly. The movement of your ship is dictated by playing numeric cards from your hand, which also carry special powers—like the card with a value of five, allowing you to pause and drop a second pirate. But beware, using too many high-value cards can cost you points at the end of the game. Seizing control of an island space earns you small bonuses, but when an island reaches full capacity, the player with the most crew members there scores a significant haul of points.
*Glory Islands* is a fast-paced, enjoyable, and family-friendly board game. While it may not have the depth to keep hardcore hobbyists engaged over multiple plays, it's incredibly fun when picked up at this discounted price. Striking the right balance between excelling in the race and strategically placing your crew to score points, all while avoiding penalties for reckless sailing, is a challenging yet rewarding endeavor. The game adds an extra layer of tension as you keep an eye on where your opponents place their sailors; islands you thought were secured can quickly slip away from your grasp.
The game is beautifully crafted with wooden ships and sailor pieces, plus miniature barrels of rum that enhance the immersive pirate king experience.
