In Skull King, you are a money-hungry pirate, challenging your opponents at a game on an old tavern table.
Pirates compete for 10 rounds. In each round, players must declare the number of tricks they estimate they can take during the round. They must then come as close as possible to this number, or risk losing many points…
Anyone who fails, by taking too many or too few tricks, loses both glory and prestige, and not making a prediction can be lucrative, but also very risky…
While each player only has one card in the first round, an additional card is added in each subsequent round. Throughout each round, players try to accumulate as many points as possible. The player with the most points after 10 rounds will be declared the Pirate King!
