In Litera-Seas, players take command of their own pirate ships, moving between ports to drop books off at floating libraries so that the mermaids will keep the sea calm. Drop off enough books to force your opponent to sink their own libraries and sail off into the sunset!

Players take turns simultaneously, moving 1 square (or Library) at a time, and selecting their books to play so that they can bring their own libraries to the brink of sinking, trying to force the other player to play the last books to take them down.

With hand-drawn art and quick rounds, this game encourages trying different strategies to defeat your opponent, or as one playtester has said, "The goal isn't to win; the goal is to not lose."
