This game is perfect for those who are fans of the Pirates CSG that was released in the early 2000s. Bear in mind it still has some kinks to work out, but this is a labor of love. The only way it could be just like the original game that was released by Sony (Soney online; SOE) is if someone managed to use that source code to make it.

This game is an amazing time with friends and against the new bots that were added recently. Would Highly recommend to anyone who grew up playing the old table top game this is inspired by!

ARRRRGH!! Very nostalgic! I've been collecting the game for ages so when I saw this announced on the Pirates of the Spanish Main reddit, I was excited! With the recent sale and update, I decided to pull the trigger and try this game out with a friend. With the recent addition of bots, games were quite tense and competitive! We spent a lot of time positioning our ships in an outright duel to the death.
On the other hand, this game is Early Access, so there were a couple of bugs we were encountering. Roughly 1 in 5 games weren't dropping rewards, or we would purchase a chest but the transaction wouldn't go through and we would need to reboot and try again. Definitely rough around the edges, but still a gem nonetheless.
I can't wait to see future updates and additional sets added. Very curious to see how that would affect chests. Would we be able to buy chests for specific sets? Or would chests pull from the entire pool of available pieces? The latter would make collecting all the game pieces much more difficult.
I do have a couple suggestions, but I will be posting those in the Discord channel. Overall, I very much recommend this game, especially when it is on sale! Development is a team of one and he/she deserves a reward for their efforts!
