Among the most interesting features of this strategic city-builder is the need to balance the deviant needs of the pirates, such as grog and wenches, with the demands of a growing captive population in need of religion and stability not to go insane in your service. With graphics vaguely reminiscent of Terraria, this side-scrolling roguelike puts you in command of a pixelated vessel sailing the two-dimensional Caribbean.
But what makes this game so good is the degree of control you have over every aspect of your simulated ship. How sweet is that? This sophisticated piracy simulator completely changed the game, both at the time of its original release in , and the more well-known remake from The game gives you a basic narrative framework, putting you in control of a young man from a fallen noble family seeking revenge against the Marquis that betrayed them by becoming a privateer.
There are duels, ship boardings, and complex management matters like dividing the plunder among the crew. You can focus on earning your pirate reputation, go to any length to line your coffers, or even go ballroom dancing if you wish. This naval FPS puts a heavy focus on teamwork, but it goes much further than just strategic shooting. You need to manage every single thing involved in sailing and combat, from manually hoisting the sails to loading your cannons one cannonball at a time.
Up to 16 players manning a single ship under the leadership of a captain sounds like the perfect recipe for chaos, but also a lot of fun. Anyone fond of pirate games is familiar with Guybrush Threepwood, the young hero and wannabe-pirate from the Monkey Island franchise. Considering the original Secret of Monkey Island was released way back in , this may be the start of the pirate passion for a lot of modern scallywags!
The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition provides enhanced audio, a more detailed hand-drawn art-style, and excellent voice acting. The basis for a great game was there thanks to some very fun and unique combat, excellent sailing mechanics, and lots of cosmetic customization.
And players are very enthusiastic about it, citing the addition of a PvP arena as one of the best enhancements the game has received. Not to mention the awesome outfits you can dress yourself up with. It may sound a bit exaggerated to say it with such confidence.
The aesthetic is perfect, the landscapes are both lush and realistic, sailing feels absolutely perfect, as does naval combat — and there are sea shanties!
And really, most reviews have been pretty positive ever since release. Not only that, but apart from the usual pirate fare of sinking and boarding ships, you can even dive for treasure in underwater shipwrecks and harpoon legendary whales.
Then I get on the Jackdaw and sail into the horizon. It still feels just as good now as the first time. Nelson Chitty is a Venezuelan expat living in Argentina. His ideal weekend is spent between leisurely playing games of Civilization VI and looking for the next seinen anime to marathon.
