Pop-Up Pirate USB Hub

usb-pop-up-pirate-hubAs if this isn’t one of the coolest things you’ve ever seen!!!

I’m ashamed to say that I never actually owned Pop-Up Pirate as a kid. I did play it, but that doesn’t justify me not having my own copy of the great game!!

But I can now rectify that error with this Pop-Up Pirate USB Hub version of the popular game and it’d go very nicely on my desk.

The same rules apply of course (for those who aren’t familiar with it). Four different coloured daggers for four players, put the sea dog into the barrel and start sticking your knives into the barrel and find out which one of your sea urchins can get him to leap into the air! The trigger slot changes every game so there’s no way of knowing whose going to stab the little blighter.

There’s an added feature to this as well. On the back you’ll find 4 USB ports so it can be used as a USB hub as well so you’re getting 2 things for the price of one! This looks much better than the boring looking one I have at home!

The price for this Pop-Up Pirate USB Hub is as expected for something like this at £24.95, but it could be great fun. The only downside I can see with this is there aren’t loads of holes to stick your daggers in, so the games will be very short.

Think this is more a novelty thing than anything else, but still fun, you could use it at work to decide who should make the next round of tea and coffee, especially if you were to use it on National Pirate Day! :)
