Amazing so far, RPG/Sim
Turrpleish

So far it has everything I'm looking for: 1. City building (village) 2. RPG skills 3. Equipment you can use on crew members 4. Pirates! Buildings also don't take hours to build. No in app purchases, gems, other lame pay grabs, etc. Really great game, will keep an eye out for any future games this developer comes out with.


Worth it!

As someone who never pays for games, this is a great pay once and enjoy forever game with no IAPs! Fun gameplay and mechanics????


Great concept, UI and balance problems
PradeepSanders

This is a great game. Fun characters and story, good art, and lots of upgradeable elements. Unfortunately, the upgrading is where there are problems. First the most obvious: This game does not fit on an iPhone 6 screen. Probably not anything else the same size or smaller. Some of the UI elements are partially or entirely hidden. Unfortunately, this includes the "decoration" scores for buildings that you might want to upgrade, leaving you wondering how the hell the game mechanic is supposed to work. The second problem is balance. As mentioned above, I can't upgrade any building so they are all at the basic level. I've only outfitted the pirates with whatever items (weapon) they came with. Despite this, after I gained a few levels there was never a fight that presented a challenge. Some of the other game mechanics are flawed, too, though not as significantly. If the UI was fixed and combat actually became difficult, this would be a fantastic game.


Great RPG

I love this game. A real pirate adventure on the high seas. Very addictive and it took me hours and hours (20 at least) to play through the story and I'm still exploring, building and filling my zoo and aquarium. Entertaining and funny too.


From PC and Mobile

I fell in love with turn based games because of this game. I love the cute aspect of this and I haven't played on my PC much cuz it was too easy with a very slow leveling curve, but I'm shocked to see it free on IOS. I've been playing since day one, eat my power spike MetalMouth


Even better than the original!

I found this app when searching one last time to see if your original app for iOS 6.1.6 was anywhere on the appstore. I saw the graphics looked firmiliar, so I decided to download it. I've been playing nonstop for who knows how long! XD This game takes more of a fire emblem story mode approach, and I like that! Keep up the good work!!
