“It’s a charming game. It’s a clever game. It’s one that allows the players to have those “Aha!” moments, to feel good after you figure something out. I love that.”

“Its simplicity is its brilliance... for those who appreciate this sort of deductive logic it’s going to be a fantastic little filler... tough, logical, and gorgeous.”

“It packs a lot of play in a pretty small package. It’s light, yet deep, always making sure players are interacting with each other in a way that keeps one player from taking over the game.”

“Hanabi and The Ravens of Thri Sahashri are probably our favorite small-footprint cooperative deduction games, but The Shipwreck Arcana isn’t too far behind. It’s a highly interactive puzzle.”

“A great way to teach logical thinking to children around 7-8+. I often struggle to find games that will simultaneously engage both my boys (8 and 11). The Shipwreck Arcana engages us every time.”

“It’s a really charming game... a nice introduction to logic-based games. The tarot card aesthetic looks really really nice; it’s fun, it’s simple, it’s easy to teach. We really enjoyed our time on The Shipwreck Arcana.”

“The key to The Shipwreck Arcana isn’t the simple, first-level deductions[...] That’s easy and trivial. But that’s only the starting point. Next you’ll have to look at what they didn’t play and gather information from that.”

“Trying to deduce both what the active player is showing you and then all of the things they are trying to imply... is an absolute joy. If you enjoy deduction games at all, you have to try this game.”
