Message in a BottleShipwrecked! Passengers of Titanica barely escaped the sinking ship! Luckily, they were able to swim to nearby deserted islands. Waiting to be rescued, survivors tossed bottles containing their Longitude and Latitude coordinates into the ocean. Use the coordinates to locate and rescue as many castaways as you can.

How to Play:1. Place the Castaways on the deserted islands on the game board.

2. Take turns drawing one longitude and latitude card. Using the coordinates, find where the longitude and latitude lines cross. For example, if you draw 25ºE and 30ºS cards, find where these two lines cross. IF the lines meet over and island with a castaway, "Rescue," or take, the castaway. Return cards to be used again. The next player takes a turn.

3. Play continues until all castaways have been rescued. The player with the most, wins!
