Move on! Only pay to win and the pay is huge and the win is minimal. Art is dated, tournaments are designed for tho spend, straight up rip off game! ### 2/5 — Turn based *2022-12-11, version 2.01.33539* Great game and graphics even considering hasn’t been updated in a while, I cannot get into turn based games. In the future a game like this should be a fight and not a slap knockout going viral ### 5/5 — Pirates *2022-10-12, version 2.01.33539* This is without a doubt one of the best rare games on the app store,I love the graphics and the finishing moves ans the noises of the swords are so satisfying ### 1/5 — Company lacks concern for customers *2022-04-09, version 2.01.33539* Some game features did not work for a month. Yet subscription fees were not reduced and company did not see a valid reason to compensate players for their trouble. Love the game, but disappointed in the company. Seems we support the game more than they do. I guess the old saying you get what you pay for does not apply to Crazy Panda Players. ### 1/5 — DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY UNTIL THEY FIX THIS! *2022-04-01, version 2.01.33539* Chat has been down for almost a month! Can not talk to anyone and VERY difficult to join a clan. They claimed they were working on the issue BUT it’s been almost a month! How long does it really take? DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY UNTIL THEY FIX THIS! ### 1/5 — HATE SPEECH WELCOME *2021-12-14* There is one player in this game that has been reported more times than all the rest of the players combined. And yet the moderators and developers continue to protect him. Is it because he’s Russian? Is it because he is from the same country as the games creators (a.k.a. crazy panda) ? In the Game’s chat, this player has verbally abused many. In the Chats this player has openly celebrated 9/11. This player is known to have sent personal messages of death threats. And yet the moderators/developers do nothing. If you support hate speech then go ahead and download this game. Many have tried to get the moderators/developers attention. But apparently they don’t care It really is a shame. Because I agree with the others… The game itself is wonderful. ” We’ll take care of this situation “… THEY HAVE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!! YouCan always block a player?? THAT’S THEIR ANSWER?!! Meanwhile this player spews hatred throughout the global chat! He is obscene!! He is hateful!!! And the moderators let it continue. They are complicit! They are incompetent! They must want it to continue! There are many in the game that have been abused and are convinced that the only reason this player is allowed to continue is because he is Russian. I thought we were finally passed this type of endorsed hate speech. But by allowing him to continue that’s what the moderators are doing … endorsing hate speech. **Developer response:** We'll take care of this situation. You can always block messages from any person in the game. ### 3/5 — Restart *2021-08-10, version 2.01.33539* How do i restart the game ### 5/5 — Great Game but *2021-08-04, version 2.01.33539* All I ### 5/5 — Play fool *2021-07-06, version 2.01.33539* I played this game two times it’s amazing also don’t hate on this game it’s just fantastic ## Frequently asked questions about Pirate Tales ### What kind of game is Pirate Tales?

Long time no sea, but that's all due to the fact that we've been busy as kraken! Introducing 14 new heroes... and a brand new rarity at that: the Mythics! Mythic heroes are the legends of the seas and seafaring come alive, almost godlike and the best in their Factions! - Sea Keeper (Mercenaries); - Duty (Empire); - Siren (Pirates); - King of Beasts (Tribes); - Fury (Albion's rage in flesh and blood); - And, finally, the Grim Reaper (the Damned). + 6 new Uncommons! Berserk raves and storms for the Tribes; the Sharper is friendly with the Pirates; Zombie walks along with the Damned; Conquistador defends the honor of the Empire; the Cantiniere feeds the Mercenaries; and the Ship Doctor has come all the way from the Albion. Oh, and 2 more Rare heroes! A Sister of a Spanish monastic order helps Empire's warriors, while the Damned Assassin continues to wreak havoc on his enemies. Mind you, we've also updated a few old (but gold!) Heroes. Meet the even better Hernan Cortes, Davy Jones and Bombette! Balance: - We've somewhat reworked the accumulation of Rage during battle: your opponents won't be able to use their Abilities that often anymore. Performance: - There's been a major "below the keel" optimization, making everything load faster and run smoother. ### 2.0.32734 — 2019-07-31 This is no ordinary update; this is Pirates 2.0! What it's about: completely overhauled economics, card Consumption and brand new Heroes! Let's get down to detail, though. The second trio of Epic Heroes! - This Portuguese sailor flies the Spanish flag: welcome Empire's Ferdinand Magellan! - William Kidd has come back from beyond to avenge his own death... and to play for the Damned; - The great pirate queen Sayyida al Hurra is joining the Mercenaries. Card Consumption: - Haven't used certain Heroes in a while? Employ them to upgrade others! Manage your Hero Collection and build it as you see fit! Balance: - New levels for all Heroes: now the Epics max out at level 50, the Legendaries at 60, the Rares at 70, the Uncommons at 80, and the Commons at—yeah, you know it—90! - Hero Chests: more cards and more frequent level-ups! And tournaments involve considerably more Hero Cards, too; - Power Bonus reconfigured: now the Hero Card bonus increases the number of Cards you're getting from Chests as a percentage, not a fixed amount. The bigger the Chest, the greater the bonus! It also includes a bonus to Stamina recovery speed and access to Elite Adventures. - 20 Bonus levels: all players' levels have been converted to new ones; - There are more Adventures with fancier rewards now in general, too; - We've scraped the Treasure Bonus and bonuses to in-game currencies. First of all, they really were two sides to the same dublon, and second of all, it does make much more sense to include currency bonuses in rewards right away! Which is exactly what we did; - Silver and Gold rewards will grow as your Collection grows! Interface: - Domination Site visuals have been redone rather nicely; - New animations designed for unlocking Hero Cards from Chests, including some extra transparency to Bonus Cards. Major thanks to all the players: those who've been sailing with us from the very start and those who have just stepped onboard! You're what keeps us going and making the game better with each update. ### 1.61.32306 — 2019-07-01 Kraken us up (and you, too)! We've used the brief calm in the Caribbean waters to invest the best of our abilities (and parts of our souls) into this update: - New. Epic. Heroes! Oh yes, no mistake here. Englishman James Cook, Pocahontas from a powerful tribe and the legend of the pirate seas—the very captain Henry Morgan! - Daily Quests reworked: accomplish goals and collect rewards! Want more, huh? Use the Golden Pass and get extra riches for completing Quests! - Faction Challenges reworked: get access to valuable faction rewards and buffs! And say no to designated goals in Challenges! - Tweaked battle mechanics: new attack gestures, updated critical hit mechanics and Heroes' damage ranges introduced. Improvements: - Clan rewards increased for the Leages (yo ho ho!); - Number of positions for moving up and/or down a League revised; - Higher chance of getting Heroes from the Clan shop! ### 1.60.31810 — 2019-06-05 Aye, Captains! Whenever we bring out an update, we seek to make the game even more fun and exciting for you. And this one is entirely dedicated to better performance, optimization and a few minor, yet awesome improvements. So, it's about Domination Sites this time: - The period of holding a Domination Site once seized is now 8 hours (yep, none of those 4-hours ones left), and the reward is appropriate; - Time bonus for re-seizing a Domination Site is now all of 90 minutes! - Amount of Silver awarded for holding Domination Site defenses has gone right up. Thank you for playing with us, and stay tuned for more updates: it's only uphill from here! Now, let's sail! ### 1.59.31587 — 2019-05-16 One cannot imagine a True Pirate Capt'n without two things — a loyal First Mate and Ambitions. Well, let's proceed with updates, shall we? - New weekly subscriptions: the Ranks! Secure the Captain, Vice Admiral or Admiral Rank and get a First Mate at your service, as well as a few other benefits, including access to Extra Events! The First Mate will take on the pleasure of fighting on your behalf, yet you'll be the one to claim all the rewards! Improvements: - Chat's Grand rework. We've done a huge effort to bring you the more fast, stable and flawless Chat experience. Communication at its finest. All over the world! Take what you can and give nothing back! ## More apps by Crazy Panda Limited - [Stellar Age: MMO Strategy](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/stellar-age-mmo-strategy/id930064323) - [Poker Royale: Holdem, Omaha](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/poker-royale-holdem-omaha/id1242374064) - [Evil Defenders](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/evil-defenders/id1434692934) - [Farm Adventure:Fox and Chicken](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/farm-adventurefox-and-chicken/id1490245681) - [Zombie Shop](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/zombie-shop/id1513556438) All apps by Crazy Panda Limited: https://appshunter.io/developer/1434066815 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
