Merchants & Marauders lets you live the life of an influential merchant or a dreaded pirate in the Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy. Seek your fortune through trade, rumor hunting, missions, and of course, plundering. The game features a unique trade system and a thematic combat system, allowing for critical decisions and intense excitement. Modify your ship, buy impressive vessels, load deadly special ammunition, and hire specialist crew members. Will your captain gain eternal glory and immense wealth - or find his wet grave under the stormy surface of the Caribbean Sea?

(Formerly known as Age of Piracy)

Great fun. I loved it

Pros: Sandbox style game! Lots of player interaction! Very thematic!
Cons: Lots of luck based occurrences. Game has lots of fiddly bits and rules can seem complicated.
Overall I would buy it again in a heartbeat, going to grab the expansion next.

Simply the best

The best pirate sandbox game that exists, period.

Yarrr up for adventure?

A rowdy good time, though a bit long and dependent on at least 4 players for it to really feel alive. We played this recently and it was a really good alternative to Xia or Firefly. If you are in the mood for open world entrepreneurship in a non-sci-fi setting, I recommend giving this one a try.

Average

It is a fun game to play. Starts off strong but might run a little too long.

Th new premium market cards add some unique opportunity for collecting end-game spirit points.

Great game for 2 people

Recommend it. Short 20 mins game.

Bidding, Luck, and Timing

This game gives you the thematic feeling of trying to cast the best (or worst) horror film. You'll be engaged every turn by seeing what your opponents are bidding for and choosing at the Horror conventions. A great game for the Halloween season. If your game group consists of 4 players and you're into Reiner Knizia's bidding/auction mechanics then this is definitely a must try for you!

Very fun beginners war game

This is my 2nd game I purchased after getting into the hobby. I play Undaunted with my 11 year old brother and we have an absolute blast everytime we play. We play each scenario as best of 3 and switch sides everytime to decide a winner and move to the next. There's also many many player made scenarios on the forums that we'll definitely do after we finish the base game. Overall, highly recommended.
