Set sail for a fast-paced pirate adventure full of risky bids, clever plays, and dramatic reversals in Skull King! This week’s featured game is considered by many to be the ruler of trick-taking games! Players predict exactly how many tricks they’ll win each round, then try to outsmart their opponents using numbered suits, pirates, mermaids, escapes, and the mighty Skull King himself. It’s easy to learn, quick to play, and packed with exciting moments from start to finish.
This game from Grandpa Beck’s Games is great for both casual players and experienced card sharks, with simultaneous bidding and special cards creating some surprises nearly every turn. Every hand feels different, with shifting strategies and unpredictable outcomes.
The game plays up to 8 people in 30-45 minutes and we’ll have a couple of copies set up and ready to go! You’re also welcome to select games from our library or bring one of your own to share.
We look forward to seeing you at 2 Row Brewing every Monday for Board Game Night from 6-11pm
