The last voyage of the Barcosa
The year is 1802. The Barcosa, an antique ship with cannons, set sail from Amsterdam for Java under Captain Claas de Ruyter in search of goods before disappearing without a trace off the coast at sea after three weeks on its last voyage as part of Henk Kuipers' crew who has hidden his diary to record their final days aboard. The player takes control of an unnamed member onboard during this time, and must use six-sided dice with writing materials provided for each adventure they want to experience by randomly generating the scenarios in which characters die or are killed off one at a time as part of events that may not always be entirely predictable but can still provide ample tension.
