It’s a cold night in the North Atlantic. The ship they called “Unsinkable” is going down by the head. And you and your despicable friends want to go down in history by being seen saving Doctor Lucky.

Save Doctor Lucky actually introduced some improvements to the mechanics of Kill Doctor Lucky, but it never sold as well. Turns out that people really prefer to kill the old man. We understand.

In Save Doctor Lucky, you may only attempt to win when another player is looking at you. This gets easier over time, because as the ship sinks, the decks are removed from the game! As players become crowded into the upper decks over time, it becomes easier to be seen. But don’t take too long to make your move! If the last deck sinks, everyone loses!

Save Doctor Lucky also contains, for no particular reason, a 10-part logic puzzle on the F-2 cards. Because we are like that.
