Red Tides: A Tale of New Caribbea is a 1-4 player cooperative, dice barrage, ship building, strategy board game set in the fantastical world of New Caribbea.
Live the pirate life! Build your ship up from a leaky dinghy, to a floating palace of destruction! Gather crew and cannons, roll gobs of dice, and take back New Caribbea!
Inspired by World of Warcraft’s Boss Battles + Mega Man’s Power Up Progression + Sid Meiers' Pirates!
Two bloody decades ago John Davies and his monstrous ship The Dead Drifter, united the four great pirate houses of New Caribbea. Now he, and his pirate lords, restrict the excesses of piracy and enforce a tenuous pact with other world powers. The seas are no longer free...
Hunt the High Seas! Fire your cannons, fly your colors, and outmaneuver opponents to minimize the damage you take while maximizing the pain you give.
Build upon your starter ship through 3 tiers of expansion! More places to shove cannons, more crevices to house crew, and options to customize your playstyle. In the end you'll captain a terrifying floating palace of destruction.
If you want to stand a chance against the greatest pirate of this age you must band together, specialize your loadouts, grow your infamy, and through blood your ships will sail free!

Testimonials from PAX Unplugged, GenCon, and Beyond!
“… hooked me from the very start.”
“So many dice rolls!! Yay”
“The upgrade strategy system integrated with the plunder. It reminded me of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag with infamy and upgrades.”
“Theme was on point, but could use some scurvy (sic) though”
“Mechanics, cool theme, lots of stuff but it never felt overbearing like some games with this much stuff going on. Easy to learn, but lots of options to make it a different experience each time.”
“I like the risk/reward calculations you had to do to figure out if you should push on or what merchants to attack”
