### 5/5 — Move along. Nothing to see here. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.

*2026-08-19, version 1.0.356*

I only gave 5 stars so this would be seen by more potential victims. 

THIS IS AT ITS CORE CENTER A DIRTY ROTTEN FILTHY MONEY GRUBBING SCAM!!! 

DONT GET SCAMMED!!! 

They don’t fix anything in the game. Inventory items randomly go missing. The gap between the players with money and those who play for fun without money or those who won’t pay to play is significant by way of “rewards”. This whole thing is a farce. Don’t get sucked in. 

Move along! Nothing to see here. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.

### 5/5 — addictive and way fun!

*2026-08-12, version 1.0.350*

Such graphics, you feel you’re actually there! They’ve done the franchise cannon characters spot on! You can decorate your ships and rename them too for a in game price of 1000 gold coins event by playing and completing tasks set out by master gnomery gibbs. It’s a right bloody adventure and glues my eyes to the screen for hours! I forget the time most the time lol!

Only, there’s something I must address,

This has been a game I’ve been on and off with due to my mental wellbeing. I’m autistic with high anxiety disorder and I keep getting people in the English chat area putting me down and bad naming me for being autistic. They even take a Mickey by repeating what I say. The bad experiences on there makes me seriously mentally ill, forgetting to eat, sleep, it’s a nightmare and I uninstall the game in the long run. Trouble is, I end up with the theme song stuck in my head from the game and I start missing it, I forget why I uninstalled and end up reinstalling. I’d love to continue playing, only online games like those heightens my anxiety levels due to people like that who are willing to reck lives. Developers, I’d like to make you aware you’ve got bullying going on in the game social sense. It has got to have a stop put to it. It’s not autistic friendly. I don’t feel safe on there and they’ve threatened to even find me on other sites.

### 2/5 — Hmm.

*2026-07-26, version 1.0.350*

This is nothing like my life. Make it so you can adventure not sit around ‘fighting’ mermaids

### 5/5 — Pirates of the Caribbean

*2026-07-24, version 1.0.350*

Developers helped me and fixed the game great so far thank you

### 3/5 — No login after update?!

*2026-06-26, version 1.0.349*

So I done the update and after three days it has not login, I done the reinstalled and still not working..any fixins?

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-06-25, version 1.0.349*

Terrible game play premise, terrible “maintenance and updates”, I do not recommend falling into this rabbit hole

### 1/5 — Very poor management

*2026-06-25, version 1.0.349*

Is there anyone playing this game that does not feel like they are being ripped off? It’s way beyond making hard to keep it interesting,it’s more like stealing money from the people that support you!
You better get your act together before someone brings a lawsuit,which would open the door for bankruptcy!!

### 1/5 — App issue?

*2026-06-17, version 1.0.347*

Haven’t been able to get into the game in three days. Load screen just goes black and never loads the game.

### 2/5 — Scammers!!!

*2026-05-20, version 1.0.347*

Это корейская компания мошенников, сколько бы ты денег не вкладывал в игру, слабые корейцы будут всегда сильнее, это игра в одни ворота, даже если корейцы будут в два раза слабее тебя, ты все равно будешь проигрывать! Не тратьте деньги на эту мошенническую игру! Служба поддержки отвратительная, отвечают на жалобы как роботы, справедливости никогда не добьетесь! Компания Дисней также покрывает их беспредел!

### 1/5 — Trying to religious into the game with my captain

*2026-05-15, version 1.0.347*

You make it impossible to relight into the game I already started by having me start over again. There’s no place that says already have an account log in here. I waste so much time just trying to get the right captain to play.  Thanks for nothing.
