The roll-write game involves traveling on a pirate ship and having adventures.

On each turn of the game we have a pool of dice, with which we perform various actions in the game: improve the ship, train crew, travel, complete tasks, etc. In the course of the game we mark our journey on the map trying to skillfully plan the journey .

Each turn we use a pool of 6 D6 dice. At the beginning we choose one of 3 available places to start the adventure which we mark on the map. Then you use the dice to reinforce your crew and ship, so created points can be used to travel on land and sea. The moment you get to the adventure you can complete it using dice with specific values. In this way we travel all over the map (collecting rum by the way) and keeping the rule that we can not use the same route twice, so you have to plan your journey in advance. After 7 turns we count points for travels and adventures.
