Players will each control up to 5 Heroes at any time, moving them across the game board in an attempt to destroy various Key Features across their opponents ship. Victory is obtained by destroying enough of these Features. Your Heroes are not alone, however, as your crew also consists of Deckhands and Bosuns who, while not controlled by the player, will work on a simple AI to wreck havoc on the enemy!

Of course, what would Pirates be without plunder? And in Rum and Bones the most sought after treasure are Davy Jones' mythical Pieces of Eight! Players will amass these powerful coins during gameplay to unleash devastating abilities and attacks from their Heroes, crushing all enemies before them until only they remain!
