Ahoy mates!
Welcome to Blackwater Buccaneers!
Game design home of Carol Record and her hearty crew.
Carol, Captain of the Blackwater Buccaneers, began designing educational tabletop games in grad school for her pleasure. She was later convinced to make some of her creations available to the public and is happy to report Operation Publish Lumen, a photography card game, has been successful!
500 copies of Lumen have been produced. 54 copies were air-shipped to the US for pre-sale at SPE’s March 2024 conference in St. Louis. Since then, the remainder have arrived via ship and are now available for purchase!
