I had looked at this game for some time and here are the facts.
this game is Very Similar to an old ps2 title called Pirates: The legend of Black Kat and Black Kat is by far a superior title. (Pirates: The legend Of Black Kat also has 2 player Ship Fighting!.) they both have fighting AND platforming elements plus it seems you fight the same recycled enemies over and over the only new critter I saw was a boss that Requires you to transform into the Black Buccaneer. I have to say for a transformation type of game they did not bother to have your character "power up" when the transformation is done. seems to be more a visual pleaser then anything involved with gameplay. the environments are very very bland and have few textures. the lighting and particle effects are low end and lame at best. what could have been a solid pirate game is now nothing more then a low budget platformer dressed up as a pirate *perhaps stealing your money?* truly a letdown in the pirate catagory.

Sound: Not good reminds me of atari 2600 1 star

Graphics: ugh... really Low end and Choppy bad collision detection too 1 star

Overall: not even worth a rental. with horrid gameplay, targeting, and terrible platforming elements, I suggest Black Kat or even Pirates of the carribean over this title. this one is not even for Rabid Pirate Fans.
One Lonesome Star.

you can buy it here. (but why?)

The only semi-impressive thing I found about this game might be the graphics...other than that it was a big let down. Dull and boring, even my kids didn't like it.

You'll get stuck countless times in this game but just remember to look up. Look over your shoulder, look behind you. This game is full of twists and turns. Good graphics, good fights. Takes a while to play so don't get in a rush.
