Walt Disney's ACTION GAME Pirates of the Caribbean

My original from the WDW PotC ride gift shop!

I had this as a kid! I want it again!

I finally uploaded some pictures of this game to the BGG site. I'm not sure why the picture of the instructions ended up in the "Info" section?? Why did that happen? I think there must be something wrong there...

I'm not sure, but I think I picked this game up during my family's first visit to Walt Disney World back in '75. I'm guessing that this was something that was only available at the theme park... probably at the ride's giftshop.

The game comes with two decent sized Pirate Ships. Most of the ship is the metal and plastic which makes up the two shooting cannons on each ship. Then, there are cardboard pieces that attach to the front for the ships hull and sails. Plus, there are three plastic "targets" that stand just above the hull. They have Pirate stickers on them to represent 3 pirates on board. One of the stickers looks like the Pirate "Captain" while the other two look like part of the crew. When you shoot your black plastic cannon balls at the other player, if you knock down all three Pirates, it triggers a little compartment in the hull to open up and that drops all of your cardboard "pieces of eight"!!

The game also comes with some buoys and cards for determining the movement of your ship before you set up to fire at your opponent.

All in all, this is a pretty cool game which I'm guessing is also fairly rare... Definitely a kid's game, but who doesn't like a game where you can shoot cannon balls at your enemy's Pirate Ship??
