### 5/5 — Amazing Story

*2017-07-28*

Left me wanting a part 2!!

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2017-07-02*

One of my favorite in choice of games

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2017-05-28*

Amazing story telling to lose yourself in

### 5/5 — Solid

*2017-05-13*

This is a good CoG interactive fiction game. I loved the setting, although the author could have done a better job with explaining terms in gameplay/story rather than an easy to ignore FAQ at the bottom of the stats page.

Some of the consequences of my decisions didn't mesh with what I expected from the text at key points which left me a little annoyed. (I wanted to demonstrate my new powers, I didn't actually want to destroy the whole town, whoops!)

Despite that, I still enjoyed this one and it's worth the price!

### 5/5 — Good pirate game

*2017-04-19*

The game is a good one with quite a lot of options to choose from. Although I only played the entirety of it once, I felt like the choices you chose did affect your interactions with many of the characters in it. The only thing I sorta wish was that I could've stayed on the good sides of the two forces, or have the opposition be neutral to me at least. Aside from that, the game's an enjoyable one that I'll say is worth it's cost.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2017-04-16*

Amazing story, read it so quickly and looking forward to replaying it

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2017-04-13, version 1.0.1*

I love these games, I do feel like the games are a bit short but that is to be expected. Other wise I give it a perfect score of 5 out of 7.

### 5/5 — Best choice game I've played, loved it.

*2017-04-09, version 1.0.1*

Loved it!

### 5/5 — Pirates!

*2017-04-03, version 1.0.1*

Top notch writing and decision making. And pirates!

### 5/5 — One of my favorites

*2016-11-24, version 1.0.1*

I LOVE the story line as well as the first rate inclusion of different genders and sexuality! Amazing game!

### 5/5 — Incredible!

*2016-09-05*

I've played my fair share of Choice of games. This one is outstanding. The diversity of options is ground breaking, and I wish that those character options were displayed in other games. I very much enjoyed the gameplay. 
Thank you for this wonderful game!

### 5/5 — A Swashbuckling Adventure!

*2016-07-24, version 1.0.1*

Ok so I like choose-your-adventure stories AND pirates, so I'm a bit biased

But

I could not recommend this story more to anyone who asked. You can be asexual! You can be trans! You can be nonbinary! AND the story is a good one! This game is truly a gift to mankind.

### 5/5 — Pretty good, but...

*2016-07-23, version 1.0.1*

I wish you could name your own ship, other then that, fantastic.

### 5/5 — So many options!

*2016-07-21*

This is my first ever Choice Of game, and I loved it! It was a lot of fun and had really interesting choices that kept me on my toes and invested until the end. I will definitely play again to see where different choices lead. I also love the options for gender and romantic orientations!

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2016-07-17, version 1.0.1*

This story was a good read and the choices very diverse. I've played it through several times to explore the different path and the story changes dramatically, just what I expect!
Would recommend it to others definitely.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-07-08, version 1.0.1*

This was a really and intriguing game. I recommend it to all, especially those who enjoy reading and interactive stories.

### 5/5 — So Awesome!

*2016-06-30, version 1.0.1*

I love it. I play it all the time and try for different endings. I get so lost in the story too! I'm curious about the mermaids though and would love to see some of the more traditional variety get their own game. 👍🏼 Keep creating because these are amazing!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2016-06-19, version 1.0.1*

Really enjoyed it! Surprising amount of options and customisation! Keep them coming!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2016-05-28*

The game has many bugs in it. It needs an update to fix them.

### 2/5 — Not my favorite

*2016-08-08, version 1.0.1*

No offense, this wasn't vey fun. I felt like my choices had very little impact on the plot and there was no developing your relationships with the other characters. Plus I never died and I played this twice. It was just your routine pirate story. Two stars because I liked the gender inclusion and being able to give yourself a title and description of the flag. Otherwise, eh.

### 2/5 — It's ok

*2016-05-25, version 1.0.1*

It's only alright, not really one of the best. The love interests are a little boring and the story is a almost a straight path. Short read time and a couple of bugs make this not really worth the money. Wish it was better because pirates are awesome

### 3/5 — Eh.

*2016-05-25, version 1.0.1*

I wouldn't particularly recommend  it... It lasts perhaps two hours and the choices are very limited. I felt very underwhelmed with the rushed plot in general and I couldn't connect with any of the characters. People may like this game but I personally did not.

### 4/5 — Not that bad!

*2016-11-15, version 1.0.1*

When I bought the app, I was slightly worried because of the other reviews. Yes, some of the scenes do feel rushed, or have little bend in the choices. On the flip side; there are so many different outcomes for the ending. I feel I got my money's worth.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2016-05-23*

I liked this game, really I did. I liked it so much that I kept taking breaks to play it when I should have been studying for finals (which are only a day away...). The only thing is, sometimes I felt like it was a little rushed. Like, major events in the game lasted only a page or two, with maybe one choice determining the outcome. Also, I haven't gotten a chance to play the other routes (seeing as I'm supposed to be studying) but the ending I got was really unsatisfying, especially considering how well I'd been doing in the game until I made one decision that got me killed. When I have more time, I'm going to go back and play it again so that I can make a different decision in the end, hopefully resulting in a better outcome. I really did like it, I just wish it hadn't felt as rushed. It was definitely worth the money though, as it provided a good couple hours worth of entertainment.

### 4/5 — Good but a bit short

*2016-05-21, version 1.0.1*

I enjoyed the story but I felt that the ending was a bit rushed. Still I think it's worth getting.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2016-05-21*

Great story, plenty of routes and romance options and good dialogue and continuity. There are a few bugs, the big one I noticed is that when you first choose your flagship, if you have more than one ship it doesn't let you choose a certain ship as your flagship.

### 4/5 — Meh

*2016-05-21, version 1.0.1*

There have been better games, and there have been worse ones. This is however worth your money.

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2021-03-13, version 1.1.2*

Loved it, only wish it could have been longer!

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent game! One bug report…

*2018-09-09*

This is a fantastic game, with lots of swashbuckling adventures and memorable characters. One bug: If I try to talk to Tinima at the Lobo Negro and she doesn’t introduce herself (because she doesn’t like me), her name in the relationships section of the stats page is a "?" for the rest of the game, even if we end up being good friends by the end of it! I also tried replaying through the game without talking to her at all at the Lobo Negro (since the last time was only my first playthrough), and I’m missing her name here, too!

Other than that, it’s a great game! Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — 5 STAAAAAAARS

*2018-07-06*

Easily my favorite game from you guys. Choices felt real and impactful while still managing to have a very compelling story. So many different story arcs that it’s definitely worth a few replays. Solid, solid work.

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER!!!

*2018-06-27*

This is the first review I have ever whiten! And this is one the BEST game I have ever played! Sooooooo worth the five bucks! Please please please PLEASE make more of these!!!

### 5/5 — The feels!

*2018-03-13*

There were so many feels in this game and it has a bit of replay ability as well. The epilogue was pretty cool but I feel like I could of done better I wonder if I can get a bit further than last time or if it is fixed to end where it did. Anyways... I need a pirates 2!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2017-11-25*

I absolutely adore this game! It's got so many choices and it's all so much fun to read through! The writing is top notch as well! All around great game! Would recommend!

### 5/5 — Captivating

*2017-11-23, version 1.1.0*

Amazing story and great freedoms. I love it!!

### 5/5 — Amazing, waiting for sequel

*2017-10-11, version 1.1.0*

A truly amazing experience. Hours and hours of pure joy and adventure. Recommending to everyone who is into interactive books. Not just entertaining but also informative. Please make a sequel to this extraordinary book. Having read most of your books, I can say that this is one of the best ones.

### 5/5 — THIS GAME IS AMAZING

*2017-08-25*

I've had this game for a week now and I've played it every day. (I may be addicted...) if you love pirates you will love this game. Pirates and role play games our my favorite so I felt like this game was made for me. I love this game •~•

### 5/5 — One of the best!!

*2017-08-24*

I really enjoyed reading and playing this story. It flowed really well in the characters are well developed. I also love when the epilogue with every ending has a different story to tell about each character.
