Fisheries of Gloucester Express

Fisheries of Gloucester Express is an "express" version of Fisheries of Gloucester. It consists of 24 ocean cards, 1 ship card, 8 bucket cards, and 5 rule cards.

At the game's start, both players have 1 bucket to put fish into. The ocean is a 5x5 grid of ocean cards, with the center space occupied by the ship. On your turn, you move the ship and pick up a card. On the first turn, both players may move only 1 space (from card to card). However, the card you pick up tells you how many spaces you may move on your next turn.

Some ocean cards allow you to pick up more bucket cards. The bucket cards have various scoring conditions (based on different kids of sets). Also, some ocean cards allow you to upgrade a bucket -- to give it more capacity and more scoring power.

After all cards are picked up, the buckets are scored and the player with the most points wins.
