In Piráti, the Beagle Boys want to rob Scrooge McDuck of his gold. Scrooge McDuck (along with Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck) try to get the treasure from the island to the harbor. Players have ships that are trying to save this way. Each player has one or more ships of their color (wooden figures in the shape of a ship) and starts on the island in the middle of the game board. Two Beagle Boys are placed on a field marked with a pirate symbol on the game board. The players gradually roll the dice - each round moves both one of the players and one of the pirates. The pirates remain only on the main route, but the ducks can hide in several shortcuts, where they are not in danger from the pirates. But if the Beagle Boys catch up with one of the player ships, the ship is captured and imprisoned on a pirate island. There is a possibility to free it if one of the players gets his ship directly on one of several squares with a star symbol. The player must get to the port by rolling the dice on exactly two green squares, and if he does not roll the necessary number on the dice to allow him to enter, he must wait or go around the next round so that the Beagle Boys do not catch up with him. If all players manage with minimal losses, Scrooge McDuck is satisfied and the game is won. Against are the Beagle Boys, who are trying to capture ships loaded with gold.
