Avast mateys!
It’s time for another pirate game review.
But don’t think Black Fleet is just another pirate game. Because Black Fleet is more than that – it’s an awesome pirate game for families.
In Black Fleet players get to play both Pirate AND Merchant!
And that’s not all.
Players also get to take on the role of the Navy – keeping the seas free of scoundrel pirates.
Now that we’ve rolled into 2015, it’s time to look back over all the board games, card games, and party games I’ve played during the past year.
For 2014, I’ve played 127 different games!
While 61 of those games (48%) are just single plays, that means I’ve played 52% of those games at least a couple times.
And just because I’ve only played a game once, doesn’t mean it’s a bad game. There are plenty of those 61 games that I’d love to play many times.

As reviewers, we’re constantly getting new games to figure out and play. And we did get a bunch of new board games for Christmas and have played all but one so far.
Over the last 5 years we’ve posted reviews of 250+ board games, cards games, and party games. Which means we’ve also played a bunch more than that.
So we can attest that some games definitely take more work to figure out than others.

One of our favorite cooperative board games is Castle Panic – a game where players feel the pressure to defend their castle from marauding monsters from the very first turn.
As soon as the game starts, the monsters are quickly upon you. Castle Panic is one of the first video reviews we posted (5 years ago) – and still holds up as a fantastic cooperative board game families can enjoy together.
So when we heard Fireside Games was publishing Munchkin Panic, we were super eager to check it out as well.
Having played from the various backgrounds now, we can make the claim for those both familiar and unfamiliar with Munchkin – Munchkin Panic is a game you’ll enjoy.

It’s a semi-cooperative game where we all work together to achieve victory…except for the traitors. And there will be traitors. Hidden traitors. Some that may not even know they’re traitors until midway through the game. It’s awesome.
