Description

Publisher's Description of Crew: Family Adventure - Marooned in Paradise
From the makers of the award-winning The Crew series: a cooperative The-Crew-style game with easier-to-learn rules and a captivating story to thrill the entire family. Stranded on a desert island in the middle of the ocean, a group of young people must find their way home through a series of 35 missions. Eat, sleep, make decisions — how will the adventure end? Three to five players play cards one after the other — and without talking to each other — until each mission is completed. A gameboard, island marker, various tokens, and special cards help players keep track of the game and offer opportunities to influence the course of the missions. 

A fresh, story-driven follow-up to the award-winning cooperative trick-taking games, The Crew and The Crew: Mission Deep Sea

New innovative game board mechanic helps track mission objectives, providing an intriguing update for fans of The Crew and making this newest version ideal for families with younger players 

Requires a collaborative team dynamic where each player is equally essential to the game’s success
Category Description for Crew

In space, no one can hear you scream… that you really, really need to take this next trick! The Crew Games are cooperative trick-taking card games that test the limits of your communication and strategy. Like other trick-taking games, each player has a hand of number cards in different suits with a special "trump" suit. Each game, players select one of 50 different missions to play. Missions set the difficulty and goals of each round by determining how many tasks need to be completed to win the game. Tasks are represented by a number and suit. This indicates that a player must take the trick containing that card, or fail the mission! In a typical game, each player has 1-2 tasks known to all players, and everyone does their best to play their cards at the right time and help the right player take the right tricks. Unfortunately, communication is limited – players have only one chance each game to share information about their hand. The rest is up to luck, intuition, and teamwork! With 50 missions of increasing difficulty providing oodles of replayability, these games are a fantastic pick for families, casual game groups, and lovers of classic card games. For 2-5 players, but best with 4. Playtime is 20 minutes per round.
