About the game

The merchant players in Port Royal, which won the Austrian Game Designers Competition under the title Händler der Karibik, are trying to earn as much as they can out of the Caribbean Sea, but if they set their goals too high, they might take home nothing for the day.The 120-card deck depicts a coin on the back of each card — with players earning and paying coins throughout the game — and different items on the card fronts.
