Great game, but money and new device needed – The Pirate: Caribbean Hunt Review

As many other reviewers have said, this is a great game. It is probably the best age of sail naval combat game on mobile devices. The expansive open world is time consuming but still fun. The combat is fantastic. Unfortunately there are a few major weaknesses that keep this game from a higher rating. 1: you need a newer device. The game runs well on my iPhone 6S+ but crashes so often on my iPad mini that it is unplayable. 2: the game is supposedly free but if you don't pay for the ad free version you will be constantly interrupted with ads. Incredibly annoying. Paying for perks like premium ships is one thing but paying to have a smooth play experience is ridiculous. 3: your ships don't do anything unless you personally command them. You can have multiple fleets of ships at different ports but doing anything with any of the takes time meaning your other ships are idle. For example, you cannot order your cargo ships to do trading while you are out a pirating. You can send them out on adventures but then you lose all control of them except for a recall function. All in all, a few changes and updates/fixes could make this a truly fantastic game.
