How to Play
The first player rolls five dice, aiming to get a 6 (Ship), 5 (Captain), and 4 (Crew) in that specific order. Players have up to three rolls per turn to achieve this. If, after three rolls, a player doesn't have a ship, captain, and crew, their turn ends, and they score no points. If the player successfully rolls the ship, captain, and crew, the sum of the remaining two dice represents their cargo score. Players can choose to stop rolling after any roll if they're satisfied with their current result. Once the first player finishes their turn, they pass the phone to the next player. Play continues until all players have had three turns each and the player with the highest total points wins the game.
