Join me as I take a look at the game components, how to setup and how to play this Pirate themed Board Game where you will build the map of the seas as you sail around looking for treasure, castaways and other bounty! Finis Terrae is a game where you get to explore, trade and even go on pirate adventures! Each time you play, you’ll get a unique map that looks like it’s from an unknown world. In this vast ocean of mystery, territories will slowly appear, which means you’ll have to figure out what to do next: rescue stranded people, dig up hidden treasures and underwater treasures, build new trading ports and trade spices. But watch out for pirates and bad weather, and remember, you can also become a pirate yourself! The winner is whoever can prove to be the best at Exploration, Trade and Colonisation.

About Finis Terrae, from BoardGameGeek:

Finis Terrae is a game of Exploration, Commerce and Piracy in which each player is asked to navigate a game map made up in a different and unexpected way every time, to simulate the map of an unknown world. In this space of sea and abyss, the territories will gradually emerge and therefore the objectives and game strategies to be undertaken: saving Castaways, recovering buried treasures and underwater finds, founding new Merchant Ports and trading Spices. Explorers will be hampered by Pirates and Bad Weather conditions and they will be able to indulge in piracy themselves. The winner is whoever can prove to be the most expert navigator, i.e. collect the most points in the 3 categories: Exploration, Trade and Colonisation (*) Every turn has 4 Phases: Cartographic Phase: each player places some game tiles and a new part of the cartography is revealed Preparation Phase: in which the weather and trade conditions of the round are defined. Navigation Phase: in which the explorers sail the sea founding ports, trading Spices and recovering Treasures, Underwater Finds and Castaways. End of the day: in which the navigation of the following day is prepared. The First Player is established at the end of each turn according to the "Rising of the Sun" rule (whoever is further EAST), while the Pirates are led in turn by each player and become an element that continuously changes strategy and acts on all players. Not all are honest traders in Finis Terrae and every explorer can decide to indulge in piracy and plunder other explorers. By its very conformation Finis Terrae adapts to different styles of play: from the most basic and direct (without thinking too much) to a more strategic and challenging one. A moderate component of luck allows you to lighten the average weight of the game. -description from the designer
