Lifeboats
Players represent rival captains trying to get one of six lifeboats to a nearby island after a maritime disaster. Each turn, only one boat advances, so players negotiate and vote to determine which boat moves and which captain benefits. Crew members move between boats as players recruit or abandon positions, and one boat springs a leak each round. If a leaking boat is at capacity, players hold a vote to decide which occupant is thrown overboard.
