Cursed Tides - Pirate Strategy Card Game | Fun for Kids, Teens & Adults | 2-5 Players | Ages 8+ | Quick 15-Minute Gameplay

fantastic fun game, really good family game.

This card game came up in my feed when ordering another card based game - it was a great price and family are into pirates so I took a chance and ordered them - it was a great choice as we have been playing it since Christmas Day, and is better than the original (more expensive) game that I ordered. Game play is fast and easy to learn, but offers the opportunity for a depth of strategy and tactics in order to beat your foes and get your three fleets completed. Moreover, while the game comes with game play rules and explanatory notes, the cards themselves have all you need on them to play without referring back to the sheets. Fantastic and addictive, and the element of chance from the shuffling and turn of the cards means that each player has a chance to win.

Worgan Games Cursed Tides was £12 at time of review - OK value. What’s Good ✅ Fun and engaging – family (teens, adults) enjoyed it but limited replay value for our group of more hardened game enthusiasts... ✅ Easy to learn – most found the rules simple once they played a practice round. ✅ Quick gameplay – games last 10–20 minutes, making it great for holidays, travel, or family nights. ✅ Portable – compact box, easy to take on trips. ✅ Cards explain actions What’s Not ❌ Not original – gameplay is almost identical to Monopoly Deal (just pirate-themed). ❌ Cards are a bit thin, artwork looks a bit basic. ❌ Limited strategy – more luck-based than skill-heavy, which may frustrate serious gamers. ❌ Box/instructions design flaws – tiny folded leaflet, hard to read, wasted space in packaging.

Overall this is a pretty fun card game. And that's not surprising because the rules are an exact copy of the rules of the popular card game "Monopoly Deal" which is fun itself. So that doesn't leave much to review I guess since they did not invent anything when it comes to the game itself. The cards are of average quality (I collect playing cards so I know what I'm talking about), the design of the faces is pretty good, but the back design is extremely bland. The box is good though, it has two stacks of cards but has a divider to prevent them mixing together. Overall for £11.99 at the time of review, it is one pound cheaper than the game it copies, so I guess that's a win? I removed 1 star because it's not an original game.

Really fun game easy to play, even my 5 and 7 year old enjoy playing it even though they need a little help. Ordered for a friends bday and they loved it and take it with them on pirate days they go on. Now ordering a set for us to have for holidays and trips its fab well worth the money. Instructions and game play is easy to learn and easy to refer back to if needed. But each card also explains. To be honest the first few times we played we played rules wrong but it didnt actually affect the game in a negative way so you can also adapt it to how you prefer to play.

Great game, took us minutes to pick it up. Fast paced and alot of fun

This game is amazing. It’s easy to learn, very fun and the cards are well made. I love all the designs on the cards. I have played many games against my boyfriend already and I got it yesterday.

If I had known the artwork was a.i slop, I wouldn't haven't purchased it.

I was looking for a game to take on a cruise and this was great. Easy to learn and teach. Game set-up doesn’t take much time and it doesn’t take too much space (a plus for traveling). I like the strategy of playing the right cards at the right time and anticipating what my opponents might have in their hands. The artwork of the cards are cool but the card stock and the game box quality could be better.

Did not expect much for the cost. But the game is very fun and easy to play.

Extremely simple game, very fun to play with lots of replay ability. Its small size allows for easy storage. Minus one star cause the art is AI and easy to notice. A more personal touch could have been achieved with different, non AI, art.

This was a gift and she liked itveey much

Fairly fun game, but when the box was opened, cards were smashed up.
