Pirate Games

Your pirate celebration isn't complete without a plethora of pirate games! Get started with a few ready-to-go and engaging games for all the pirate children.

Pirate Escape Room

The first pirate game on this list is a pirate escape room! Escape Room Games are a crowd-pleasing favorite for any pirate celebration. Choose from the pirate ship escape room  or pirate's cove escape room. Both are not only great pirate games, they are ways for young people to think critically and solve puzzles in a team in a school or home setting.

Here's how escape rooms work! First, party goers visit 10 stations to solve a puzzle and record their answer on the provided recording sheet. Each of the 10 stations has a hint card. Decoders are provided with the name of the puzzle for kids to use when needed.

Each Escape Room Game comes with the following:

• PDF game guide
• Set up instructions
• PDF game materials
• Signs to hold up
• Frequently asked questions

Pirate Treasure Hunt

This pirate game is different from the pirate scavenger hunt. This is one of my favorite pirate games to use in the classroom or with a pirate party at home!

The pirate treasure hunt includes treasure hunt clues, riddles, and escape game puzzles.

Treasure hunt pirate games are easy to play and consist of two rounds.

Round 1:

To begin, your pirates read a “secret mission”, and Clue # 1 is handed to the “treasure seeker”. Clue #1 then leads to clue 2 in a different location.  After finding each clue, they will need to decode a puzzle revealing “movement” on the included pirate game treasure map. This continues as your party goers solve 14 riddles in round 1.

Round 2:

Next, the kids use the decoded answers from the puzzles. Then your pirates move the “directions” on the treasure map to figure out where their final treasure is located. To do so, they need to know basic addition and subtraction of numbers 1-10. Keep this in mind when considering the age and level of your party goers!

This pirate treasure hunt includes the following in an instant download:

• PDF game guide (8.5 x 11)
• 14 Scavenger hunt riddles and puzzles
• Treasure map
• Set up instructions with hiding spots
• Frequently asked questions
• Coupon code for future purchases

Get ready for a fun-filled party full of pirate games!
