About the game

What is Captain Flip?

Ahoy, Captain! Hoist your flag, recruit a crew, and fill your coffers with shiny, gold coins. Captain Flip is a game of obvious simplicity explained in less time than a cannonball shot. On your turn, draw a tile from the bag. You like it? Keep it! You don't like it? Flip it! Then place it on your board to form your crew. With its nine characters and four boards with different tactics, Captain Flip offers an immediate, fun, and subtle gaming experience. —description from the publisher
