Rules
Each round, one player takes on the role of the judge, and reads out a specific insult from the infamous pirate 'Touché Turnip,' and the other players must quickly craft and write down their own rhyming comeback in response. The responses are shuffled and handed back to the judge.
The judge then selects the wittiest comeback from their perspective, and the winning player is awarded the insult card, further advancing them in their duel.
The player to the left of the judge becomes the new judge, and the game continues clockwise. The first player to score three advances wins the duel and is declared the ultimate swashbuckling wordsmith.
Get ready to let your creativity shine as you face off against your fellow scallywags and counter Touché Turnip’s pirate insults with rhyming brilliance!
