Grandpa Becks Games Skull King - The Ultimate Pirate Trick Taking Game | from The Creators of Cover Your Assets & Cover Your Kingdom | 2-8 Players 8+

A friend introduced this game to us and we immediately bought it for our family. Its so much fun, and our kids enjoy playing too. Easy to learn, but not boring and lame after you do (i.e. chutes and ladders with kids kills me) and as an added bonus its just cards. No worries about losing tiny game pieces (Monopoly or Risk). We took it camping and even played with one more person and only went up to nine rounds instead of ten. You can play the original version or add in cards from the expansion pack to add more mischief to the fun. All already included in the box. Perfect for traveling and packing light. Hands down one of my favorite new games! Keep it up Grandpa Beck and thanks.

Great game for the family! 3 generations enjoy the competition. Helps with math skills, too. Highly recommend this game.

Fun game and makes you think about every play. Yo Ho Ho!

Engaging, fun game for multiple ages. We loved Cover Your Assets and are happy to find another fun family game.

We got this as a birthday gift for a nine year old. Our family loves games, and based on reviews we thought wed give it a try. It was simple enough to learn, and we enjoyed the theming and pace of the play. Weve only played it a couple of times, but everyone (9,13,16, adults) had fun each time.

Love this game

My kids really like it. Cards seem thick and good quality.

Skull King is a great family card game and one our entire family enjoys playing. It takes a little more time to learn than some games if youre using the expansion pack, but well worth it if you want to take the game up a notch. Its not easy to find games that every member of our family will enjoy and play, so I love Skull King. The various cards and abilities give players strategies to win tricks and get points (or avoid getting points).

Although the full game can be somewhat complicated, the instructions make it easy to learn bite size bits and still have a great playing experience. We learned an earlier version from a friend and loved it. The newer set has additional cards and modes to give it endless playability.

This is such a great game, it has so many different levels of play based on the people playing it. I can play this with 5 other adults, and the strategy and gameplay is super high. Then I can turn around and play it with my children and they can play. If you are a fan of spades this game provides an amazing twist where you are highly rewarded for bidding accurately and even more rewarded if you can run the game with 0 tricks won.
