Key, Shovel, Treasure

Sail off in search for a treasure that lies buried and locked somewhere on a tropical island. Key, Shovel, Treasure is a small pirate-themed game originally designed as a board game. It's aimed at children, but grown-ups have been known to enjoy it as well :).

You can steer your ship across the sea with keyboard or mouse. Make landfall often to look for a key, a shovel and, of course, the treasure.

Key, Shovel, Treasure started as a board game designed by one of us, Willem, together with his son (aged six). His kids liked the game, so he made a digital version for them. Which they liked so much that we decided it was worth the time to polish up the game and make it available to the world.

The default language for Key, Shovel, Treasure is English. Other than that, it can be set to Dutch. We're not brave enough to try our hand at any other translations, but adding in extra languages in the future is possible.
