Board Game Geek Reviews


  1. 7.2 out of 10

    Only played once. My first impression is that I think its a fun game for adults but it will take playing at least 3x for my kids and teenagers to understand how best to play together to beat Long John.

  2. 8 out of 10

    The combination of deduction, story and interactive search for the treasure, makes this a top game. Would like to see a Hungarian version, but so far even getting an English version is problematic. I miss a map expansion/additional cards and tool set though.

  3. 8.5 out of 10

    Game is a little unbalanced, with Long John seldom winning, but this can be adjusted by allowing the Silver player to draw six cards up front, and strategically release information better throughout the game. The markers can also be hard to see on the colorful side of the board, but I am delighted that the sepia side of the board was replaced with a straight up map appearance (far more thematic and easy to see). Aside from these quibbles, this game is so much fun, and can be played with my children quite easily. I only wish it could be played with 6 players, but I understand why that would make it even more unbalanced.

Be the first to review “Treasure Island”

Long John Silver’s crew has committed mutiny and has him cornered and tied up! Round after round, they question him about the location of his treasure and explore the island following his directions — or perhaps his misdirections? Who knows… The old sea dog is surely planning an escape, after all, after which he will definitely try to get his treasure back.

Treasure Island is a game of bluffing and adventure in which one player embodies Long John, trying to mislead the others in their search for his treasure. The hunt reaches its climax with Long John’s escape, when he will make a final run to get the booty for himself!
