### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-17*

Great game honestly had a lot of fun and also graphics are amazing for everything except when your moving your character and also you guys should hat character customization if y’all want and add stuff like events for pirates of the Caribbean like for an example you can get characters from the movie in your crew and add like legendary ships like the black pearl or jackdaw from ac black flag and do like when you hear people talk during battles when you start going into one they can say captain[your name] and I would love to add these in this game it would be a pleasure and I really want a black pearl ship

### 4/5 — Крутая !!!!!

*2026-07-16*

Когда я первый раз скачивал я думал что я смогу свободно передвигаться по кораблю и хотел бы чтоб это добавили . Ещё кое что из за чего 4 звезды , я решил купить пряности по 70 руб и пере продать за более большую сумму но цена продажи ниже первоначальной стоимости. Спасибо !!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Goat

*2026-07-08, version 1.7.9*

Hella fun

### 5/5 — Супер

*2026-07-04*

Интересно

### 1/5 — Terrible fix your game

*2026-07-02, version 1.7.9*

I can’t be more than two minutes because it crashes I can barely get through the prologue

### 1/5 — Might be a great game…

*2026-06-15, version 1.7.9*

If it didn’t crash every 30 seconds. I don’t generally give bad reviews, but this is completely unplayable.

### 4/5 — ( major review update ) Good idea to make people want to buy the full game

*2026-06-08*

First of I want to say the graphics   On this game are TOP quality, and the amount of ads makes sense, one thing, the reason most people ( including me ) don’t buy the full game pack is because we have absolutely no clue, sure it tells you how many maps and ships with no ads which is nice, but you don’t show  the ships or the maps, a good idea is on the final check in the same Ken that gives you the battleship 1 trophy you can get a special item where you can go into 1 map and you have to do something interesting to be able to get back, or only for a limited amount of time in the new map until you are pulled back to the starter map, and possibly you have to watch an absurd amount of ads like 10 ads to be able to get 1 of those items qnd you can only do it once a week, so you can get the money from the ads and players get to see a sneak peak of the maps. Also, 1 more thing, a while back I was just going through the middle area of the map when I got jumped by 5 pirate vesicles and it actual surprised me and I actually had real fun battling them. I didn’t even know that could happen! Could you make it so depending of how much bad reputation you have with a fraction the bigger the surprise attacks and the more often it happens? For example: if you are at -100 surprise attack by 3 ships mostly xebecs, -200 to -400 3 ships but mostly barks -500 to -800 4 frigates ships. -900 5 ships mostly frigates with 1 battleship 1. I just want to give a shout out to the animation team for a free game and I mean holly molly! I just want to say this is a recommendation from a veteran player who has been playing the game for over 2 years. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your great feedback! We’re delighted to know you enjoy the game. Your suggestions are valuable, and we will consider them for future improvements. Please continue to enjoy playing!

### 3/5 — Linguagem

*2026-06-05*

Quero saber por que não tem a legenda português, só tem espanhol nesse jogo, como vou ser um pirata sem entender nada?

**Developer response:** We understand the importance of language options and appreciate your suggestion about Portuguese subtitles. Adding new languages takes time, but we'll share your feedback with our developers. Thank you for your support!
