Safe Harbor

Safe Harbor is a fan-made digital adaptation of the tabletop board game Up the River — a local hot-seat race down a shifting river, for 2 to 3 players (any seat human or AI).

Guide three pieces past sandbanks and reefs toward the harbor, but the river never plays the same way twice. Each round rolls its own weather: Clear Skies lets a lucky roll be split between two of your pieces, Feeding Frenzy turns a shared tile into a dice-off duel, Easy Chartering hands you two rolls and lets you choose. Abilities you pick up along the way — Ignore Sandbank, Disrupt Reroll, Reroll Weather, Roll -1 — let you bend a bad round in your favor, or someone else's against you. Linger too close to the falls when the tide turns, and you're swept back.

Every roll, every choice, every clash is something you trigger yourself — nothing resolves automatically, whether you're playing against friends or AI opponents.

Fully playable in English and Chinese, with pixel art, a custom-built UI, and its own soundtrack.

This is an unofficial, non-commercial fan project, adapting the original tabletop ruleset for solo and local play. All credit for the original game design goes to its creators.
