In one sentence

Sip n Sail is a pirate party card game for 4 to 6 friends in one room: the PC is the table, and everyone plays from their phone's browser with nothing to install.

In a paragraph

Recruit your crew at the tavern door, plunder the King of the Seas' flagship, and try not to be the one left aboard when it sinks. The game runs on a Windows PC plugged into the TV; players join by scanning a QR code, so each hand stays private on its own phone. Games start in Penalties mode, and hosts can switch on an optional Adult mode for players of legal drinking age.

Key features

  • Rival captains, one flagship. Recruit a crew, plunder the King of the Seas together, and turn on each other while you do it.
  • You choose who suffers. Every card you play hands out penalties to the friends of your choice.
  • A finale the whole room watches. The shipwrecked captain fights the King's last stand on the big screen while everyone yells advice.
  • Phones are your hands. Everyone plays from their own phone, so every crew stays secret.
  • Penalties or Adult mode. Count penalties by default, or let the host turn on sips for players of legal drinking age.
