Description
Pocket Paddles is a free print and play game for two players that fits in your wallet. All you need to play is the credit card-sized gameboard and 7 coins per player.
In Pocket Paddles players compete in a furious paddle boat race. Whoever lands three ships on the sandy shores of Victor Island first, is declared winner, and is rewarded the platinum-power-paddle. The coins act as currency in a blind-bidding and bluffing round, in which the movement of your ships is determined. However, these coins also act as ships. Therefore, placing ships on the board drains your bidding resources.
Tactics, wits and some winds of fate will carry the winner to Victor Island.
