52Sails is Live!

52Sails is officially live as of today. This has been months in the making, and now it's real. You can buy it and play it or try it before you buy it.

What It Is

52Sails is a tabletop skirmish game where players command a fleet of three ships battling it out as cursed pirates trapped in a strange sea. The game is played with a handful of d6 dice and 2 decks of cards. Your cards are your actions and measuring tools, making every hand a decision about what you're willing to spend.

It's meant to be portable so it's played on a 2x2 mat in about 20 to 30 minutes. Once players get used to the unique style of play, the game begins to show its real beauty as players start bluffing their way to victory.

What's Included

The full rulebook includes six scenarios. All-out battles, fighting among whales, battling while a kraken tries to consume everything on the board. Players also receive a cursed artifact that gives every captain a unique playstyle. Different experiences every time. Everything you need for endless battles on the Cursed Seas.

Where to Get It

The game is available for $8 at:

- groundlevelgames.com

- Itch.io

Want to try before you buy? A free quickstart is available on all platforms.

Thank You

I just want to say thank you to all my friends who played the game and gave me valuable feedback. I love you guys and wouldn't be able to do what I am doing without you.

What's Next

Okay so what is next now that 52Sails is done? Glad you asked!

I am currently working on the final touches of a small micro game called DiceHeadz that will be published for free when it's ready. DiceHeadz is a chess-like game where players are bored deities that have replaced faces with dice-faces and control souls to fight for eternity.

Along with DiceHeadz, I am working on a skirmish-style mech game that takes place in a universe where war has been banned and fighting has been monetized for entertainment purposes.

If any of that sounds interesting, follow along. I will be posting blogs about the process and just giving general updates along the way.

Thank you for being here from the start of my journey and supporting me.
