A Pirate's Word

A pirate game based on the prisoner’s dilemma. Over five days, players secretly choose cooperation or betrayal cards for the islands between them, negotiating with neighboring pirates over shared gems. Cooperative choices split the gems, while betrayal takes them all unless both players betray each other, leaving no one with anything.
