Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island
Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island
This is, of course, a game of surviving after being shipwrecked on a 'desert' island. And it's one of my favourite co-operative games. This is because the players are constantly under threat. To begin with, do we build a shelter and starve? Or hunt/gather food and die of exposure?
Once you've worked out how to survive, there's the knotty question of achieving the scenario's goals. The first scenario is pretty simple: build a signal fire in time to attract a passing ship. After that, the game lives up to its subtitle: Adventures on the Cursed Island. Oh boy!
For 1-4 players, aged 14+, playing time 1-3 hours
