Ship Captain and Crew is a also known by many names such as Cap'n, Bos'n, Mate or 6-5-4 or Ship of Fools or Destroyer. The aim of the game is to roll a ship(6), then a captain(5) and then a crew(4) with 3 dices and get the highest score with other two (cargo). A player rolls five dices and collect 6,5,4 in descending order. Each player gets three rolls in a single round and if they have collected 6,5,4 then the sum of the value of the remaining two dice would be your score for that round. You can play in single player mode which has a total of 10 rounds. Or you can play against the computer where you both get 10 rounds each. You can also play against your friend or family in the "Local 2 player mode". We hope you like the game and share it with your friends and family too.
