In Scalawag! each player takes the role of a captain and battles it out on the high seas (your table!) against the other players with the goal of being the last ship floating. Along with their ship, players will have crew cards that are kept secret from other players. Different crew members allow you to take special actions or gain extra bonuses on your turn. The twist with Scalawag! is that you can bluff and take an action with a crew member you don’t actually have. Other players have a chance to challenge your actions by calling “Scalawag!” If you’re bluffing you’ll suffer the consequences, but if you weren’t bluffing, the challenger will have to suffer those consequences instead!
