Description
In 1675, after a successful pirate career, Henry Morgan wisely had himself appointed Governor of Jamaica. The condition? He had to rid the Caribbean of pirates and privateers! Henry Morgan solved it his own way—instead of arresting them, he invited all his former "colleagues" to join him in retirement, where they could enjoy the fruits of their looting with total impunity. To commemorate the good old days, Morgan organizes the Great Race around the island every year. The winner is the captain who has the most gold on their ship at the end.

Jamaica is a beautiful, simple game. You'll start strategizing from your very first match.
The game mechanics are truly straightforward—choose from three resources and move forward or backward. At first, the game felt quite unbalanced to us, with someone lagging far behind on the board, but it turns out the game's mechanics balance that out.
We played our first game for about an hour and a half (with 5 players), but that was while flipping through the rules. With three players, we managed one game in 45 minutes and another in an hour. The graphics are beautiful, and all the components are high-quality.
We're even thinking about getting the expansion, where you can recruit sailors to your deck in addition to resources, adding a bit more complexity to the game.
Jamaica je krásná, jednoduchá hra. Už při první partii člověk taktizuje.
Herní princip opravdu není složitý -výběr ze tří surovin a pohyb dopředu, dozadu. Na začátku nám přišla hra dost nevyrovnaná, někdo zůstal na plánku daleko za ostatními, ale ukázalo se, že to mechanismy hry vyrovnají.
První hru jsme hráli snad hodinu a půl (v 5 lidech), ale to jsme ještě listovali v pravidlech. Ve třech jsme pak zvládli jednu hru za 45 min, další za hodinku. Grafika je krásná, komponenty jsou všechny kvalitní.
Přemýšlíme i nad rozšířením, kde kromě surovin můžete na palubu naverbovat i námořníky a hru si tak trochu zkomplikovat.
