Field notes
The pirate game turns spending silver into attacks, traps, and a deliberately questionable chicken; its page says a win earns a Salty Tear. Old Money makes information its central currency, with players weighing rumors, inside knowledge, wars, treaties, and distant fleets across 58 rounds. The detective title asks players to question suspects, check clues, and build a case before making an accusation.
