9 plates (all except the treasures) are placed face down on the game board. In his turn player turns one plate face-up. If it is island or treasure hunter he turns a second plate face-up. If the second is also island or treasure hunter so that they form a couple (island and treasure hunter) he wins a treasure to be place in front of him. Otherwise he turns the plates back to face-down. If he finds a shark he removes it from the game. If he finds a telescope he may watch one plate not showing it to others. If he finds a pirate he may steal a treasure from his opponent to aim and shoot his treasury with cannonball. The game is over if all treasures have been found. The player of the greates number of treasures wins. If tied the cannonball firing decides the winner.
