  More from the MuseumTour expert:
This beautifully crafted game will sweep players away to a world of imagination and excitement while building social and interpersonal skills.
Yo ho ho! An exquisite pirate game worthy of display!

Buried treasure, desert islands, treacherous seas, hungry sharks and, of course, pirate battles all await you in Dread Pirate. Choose a ship, a port of call, and set sail in search of treasure - gold doubloons, diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires. Trade for treasure or sail broadside to another Captain and take your best shot! Watch out for the Abyss of Doom and Shark's Tooth Passage, where the flip of a card may seal the fate of your entire crew! Want to win? Be the first pirate to collect every kind of treasure and reach Dread Island. Feeling seaworthy? In advanced play, the wind will howl and only one pirate will sail away with all the treasure!

Dread Pirate® comes in an authentic, aged wooden sea chest and is so finely crafted, old Blackbeard himself may return to steal it away. Open the weathered wooden chest and study the meticulously drawn "aged" cloth treasure map. A world of pirate battles and buried treasure surprises unfolds before you.

The game is packaged in a wooden treasure chest and includes a board in the form of an aged treasure map, three knuckle bones (dice), four treasure sacks, four diecast metal ships, one wind cube, forty-eight Dread Pirate cards, four map cards, fifty replica doubloons, 120 treasure jewels, rulebook, and captain’s log.

You’ll want to show off this high-quality game even when you’re not playing.

Chest is 5"H x 8 1/2"W x 10 3/4"L.

Although it is expensive, I agree with the poster previous to me - the quality is worth it. My husband actually asked for it after playing it at a Cub Scout camping trip. It has been one of the most used Christmas gifts this year and has already offered many hours of enjoyment and precious family time (our kids are 9 & 10). Considering that one 2 hour trip to the movies can cost $40 or more dollars for a family of four then this actually is a great deal for family entertainment dollars.

Wow! What a beautiful game! At first it seems a bit pricey but the quality of this game is superb. The cloth treasure map/playing board is great as are the jewels and gold coins. The ship playing pieces are wonderful.Everything is constructed of very heavy materials and will definitely last a lifetime.My son (10 on Christmas Eve) was very impressed with the game. He is a very high-tech kind of child and the simplicity and beauty of this game is second to none.He loved it as much as his PS2 and his new FlyPen. Thanks for offering such a great product!
