Have you played Sid Meier's Pirates? I'm sure a lot of you out there have played the popular Sid Meier Civilization games, but this is a different type of game. With this, Meier tried his hand at simulating the life of a pirate, and boy did he do a great job. For those of you that ever played Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and wanted to focus more on the pirate aspects rather than the campaign, or anyone else who has ever wanted to play a game as a pirate, this is definitely worth playing.

I actually missed this game n the first go around. It came out in 2004 for Windows and X-Box, and can now also be found on the X-Box 360 and Apple devices. To avoid confusion, the game I am talking about is the 2004 version, but there is a version that came out way back in 1987. In this game, you can sail on the high seas, engage in both ship and foot combat, and visit ports and towns to trade and interact with locals. All of this adds up to building up your reputation as the most notorious pirate in the Caribbean. The ship combat is smooth to control as you guide your ship into position to fire at the enemy and land combat is a well-paced, rock-paper-scissors type match between different strikes and dodges. Everything while anchored is ineracted with through a very friendly and easy to use interface. If you have any interest in pirates, or just good games, definitely check this one out.

I've never heard of this game. It sounds pretty interesting. I would be down to play it sometime. I'll look into it.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of this game before, but it sounds like it is similar to the Pirates of the Caribbean online game that was popular about ten years ago. I used to play Pirates of the Caribbean, so I think that I would enjoy this game.
