The game is very well put together save for an annoying tendency for ships to randomly spawn in your path near harbors.

I almost didn't get this game because of the negative reviews, glad I gave it a try anyway

It is such an underrated game. You will have fun after the initial learning period. the hotkey note is at the bottom of the screen when you are in ports. "I" and "M" are the only important UI on the sea and number key 1 is the most frequent key you will press. You may need some practice to use the cannons but skills can save your day. The problem of so many thumb down may be because of the limited weapon you have in the early stage of the game. When you have better ship, better cannon and mostly important better skills, you will find you can pack serious punches to your opponent.

When I first got the game I struggled with the tutorial a bit and almost regretted my purchase, but once you get past that the real fun begins - I've done two playthroughs now so feel qualified to say that it genuinely is a fun game BUT it's more of a skill based one and so while it could be easier, earning the skills and making sharp turns with sails almost feels MORE rewarding as you start getting the hang of it.
Combat is the not easiest at the beginning when you lack a decent sized ship and special powers but late game with better ships, more fun magic (where would we be without haunted ship?) and a better understanding of the mechanics make it worth while. I quite like the unique art style and even sailing around doesn't get too boring since there's new battles, ports to conquer and little whale animations to keep the visuals alive. Bigger ships can be more of an inconvenience for agility despite higher 'health' and damage, but I think part of the fun is finding the ship that works best for your strategy, I like the galleon myself since it's a nice middle ground, but the game encourages you to try all of them with the different abilities for each ship.
Do I think it's for everyone? Perhaps not, it's very much a ship battle game with no first person pirate fighting, but honestly now I'm familiar with it I do enjoy that aspect, and strategising how to take over the best ports for profits/defence. I would like some kind of fast travel/warp when getting across from one side of the map to the other but it's a minor inconvenience at most.

If you like to play on PC a game of pirates, this game is relatively easy to play with a lot of quest ans sea combat. It doesn't need a powerful graphic card since the graphics are 2D.

Managed to lose my save game twice. It's not even showing on the cloud save site.
it's a fun game, sort of mellow in ways, and it is fun and worth the sale price.
but having just lost some 6+ hours of play time (twice) , is annoying. going to look up if the game has backups of old saves somewhere, if I can't find my old game saves, I will be off to play some other games.

love this game! It's like "The Pirates: Caribbean Hunt" on mobile back then minus the first person view.
One complain I have is the game lacks pure black or pure red color theme for sets on higher tiers aside from the pirate king set, which is a mix of red and black and some yellow/gold.
Also it would be better if there are set bonuses. Still a great game tho some what short
