Desert islands, treasure, hungry sharks, treacherous seas and, of course, pirate battles all await you in Dread Pirate.

This beautiful coffee table game comes packaged in an aged wooden book and is played upon a wonderfully illustrated cloth treasure map.

Be the first pirate to collect all types of jewels and land on Dread Island to become the most feared and powerful captain on the high seas.

    A rating of Dread Pirate - Bookshelf Edition

    Rating:

    The game is fun to play, and the quality of the components is very good. I did not want to spend the outrageous sum for the regular edition of the game, so this was a fine alternative at a good price. Plus, the game ican be stored conveniently in this configuration.

    I saw this at a bookstore and wanted to find it. When it arrived I was not dissapointed. The craftsmanship is wonderful and imaginative. We really like the cloth map and wooden dice.

    Adventure In a Small Box

    I bought the game on the strength of the pirate genre and online description. It's so much better. The bookshelf version is a first- rate production. It offers best quality components, from wooden 'book' storage box to glas and metal game pieces. Best of all, it's actually fun to play. It has enough strategy and 'action' without becoming bogged down in over-complicated rules. Adults and kids can both enjoy it and it can be played in whatever amount of time you want to devote to it, a half an hour or an entire evening. I rate it a '5' because I can' t honestly find anything about it to subract points. It's a playable, enjoyable alternative to computer games. Take it along on your next vacation to the beach.

    We originally saw this game at the FAO Schwarz store in NYC - it is a fun game of the highest quality! The cloth gameboard and gamepieces are all quality materials, not to mention the wooden game box it comes in.
