Scurvy! More Scuttle Fun is an expansion for Scuttle! released in 2016 for 1–5 players, 5–10 minutes per game, and ages 6 and up. It was designed by Peter C. Hayward.
Includes eight Disease cards: Pox Scurvy Typhus Beriberi Fever Sailor’s Bane Sea-Sickness Piratitis! At the start of the game, you put one of them into play and shuffle the rest into the deck. Each disease has a different ability, and they affect all players. Disease cards don’t count as permanents, and whenever you draw one it goes into play immediately. As your action in a turn, you can shuffle all Disease cards from play back into the deck - this is the only way to get rid of them, but it might be worth it...especially if all eight are in play!
Scurvy! More Scuttle Fun supports 1–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Scurvy! More Scuttle Fun is 5–10 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Scurvy! More Scuttle Fun for ages 6 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Scurvy! More Scuttle Fun has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
