Booty is listed in the GameForever catalogue but not in the duel pool: this game is never offered for a vote, its 1,500 points are never at stake and it does not appear in the world ranking. Its entry and its debate stay open.

About Booty

Jim the Cabin Boy must make his way below decks to collect
various items of booty (automatically picked up when he walks
past it) strewn around the ship.

When you have collected all the items from the Black Galleon's
20 holds, you will be given 45 seconds to locate the Bronze key
to the next pile of booty. Clearing all booty a second and third
(impossible!) time causes a search for the Silver and Gold keys,
each increasing the game's speed and hazards.

Jim will meet an untimely death if he falls through a trap door,
drowns, is bitten by a ship's rat, or pecked by one of the Captain's
parrots, or cut down by a Ghost Pirate, or blown up (some
pieces of booty are booby-trapped to step lively, mates) or
steps through a hold door into mid-air (heh! heh!)

ELO progression

This game does not take part in duels: its score never moves, so there is no history to plot.

Head-to-head

As this game is never offered in duels, it has no match-up to its name.
