Memoarr!

Played this with three friends and the memory mechanic got surprisingly tense once the compass cards start flipping. Works great at 2 players too, though it's funnier with a full table arguing over who saw which tile.

The pirate theme really brings the matching game to life—my friends and I argued over who flipped the wrong card. It plays surprisingly fast with 4 players, and the luck of the draw keeps everyone

I brought this to game night expecting a light filler and it turned into an hour of yelling at each other about flipped cards. The pirate theme actually matters, since the wrong-card penalty keeps every turn tense instead of just lucky. Works great with 4 players.
