Unnatural events dog the sailing ship Emilia as she crosses the Pacific, all seemingly drawn from the sea shanty "Roll the Old Chariot Along." Can you decipher the clues in the song and save the ship?
It’s 1880. You are sailors and scholars traveling the world’s sea lanes to document the dying art of the sea shanty. Commercial sail is obsolete in the face of steam technology, and its majesty is slowly fading from the world. Shanties will surely vanish unless someone writes them down. But a wicked spirit doesn’t like shanties falling into the hands of landsmen. It manifests the imagery and events from each song to oppose you, threatening the very ships you sail aboard. Can you anticipate these dangers before they strike? Can you safeguard the ship and her crew?
Warnings: The event was originally listed with rules of "Shanty Hunters (1st)." It has been changed to "Shanty Hunters (1st Edition)."
