Publisher's blurb: Yo Ho Ho and a Box O' Fun! Go for the gold in this game of treasure matching using your memory skills. But watch out for the Skull & Crossbones or your precious gold will get taken away. The person with the most gold in the end wins! Children's game, box says Ages 3 and up. A variant on the Memory type games, the twist is that you are trying to match the tile that was turned over second by the person who went before you, so a little harder than the standard game. Get pirate gold tokens when you make correct matches, lose gold by turning over the Skull & Crossbones. Whoever has the most gold at the end wins the game.
