Stomp the Plank

Players are young pirate elephants trying to steal treasures from the captain’s chest while shifting blame onto others. On a turn, a player draws cards from the chest as many times as they choose; each treasure drawn forces opponents to add a crate to their plank, increasing their risk of tipping. Drawing a duplicate card causes the drawer’s elephant to stomp forward on its own plank, potentially triggering a collapse. Bluffing and push-your-luck decisions create interaction as players balance greed against the danger of being sent to walk the plank, and the first player whose plank falls loses.
