Gold Armada (2017)

Overview

Gold Armada is a pirate themed board game where players roll the dice and try to collect as many gold coins as possible! The better you roll, the more difficult it is to collect more coins. Successful rolls are rewarded with gold, but unsuccessful rolls will earn you a skull token.

Each turn the player rolls 5 dice and tries to match a certain set of symbols on the game boards. He can reroll any number of dice twice. Depending on the final result, he can pick up 1 coin in a row that matches a set of symbols on his dice. When picking up a coin, a new symbol becomes visible, making the current row harder, but also more rewarding as the value of the coins increase.

If the player fails to roll any set of symbols, he has to pick up a skull token, which gives him -1 point at the end of the game.

The game ends when all gold coins are picked up or when a player takes the last skull token. Sum the value of all your gold coins and subtract 1 point for each of your skull tokens. The player who has the most points wins the game!
