This the second Surprised Man game, by myself (Kieran Walsh) and Peter Silk. You can see our website here: http://www.surprisedman.co.uk
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Twenty years have passed since The Shattering and a few brave souls finally gather the wits and resources to explore the seas beyond your small island.
Not wanting you to take all of the glory, the dastardly Sir Lester Marwood offers a gentleman's wager: the person who makes the most money from their explorations through the year of 1777 shall be declared the winner and receive the profits of both parties.
You will voyage north, Marwood goes south. The game is on.
Click on the sea to set sail in that direction. You may only sail to places you have revealed.
Discover islands by sailing close to them and explore their resources by clicking on them.
Return to port to sell your findings. Explored islands with good resources will sell for significantly more.
