Players represent the worst pirates in a ship's crew. The captain has rounded you up because you're all too lazy and too stupid to be worth your share of the rum and booty. Owing to a shortage of pirates, the captain has decided he is willing to keep two of you in his crew. To prove you are worthy, you will right amongst yourselves, trying to shove other players' pirates off the end of the plank while keeping yours alive. The last two pirates still alive win the game!
