- “The best thing the devs can do is to improve the story; it's not a big deal considering the fact that the game is not cheap.”

The music in the game is generally praised for its calming and nostalgic qualities, enhancing the overall experience of naval battles and exploration.

- “Love the graphics of the game and the sweet loving music.”

- “I have only one complaint: every time I turn the music off, it automatically turns back on after some time. Since I like to relax listening to the sound of the sea, I'd really like you to fix this.”
- “Pretty good, but it's a copy of a PlayStation game called 'Under the Jolly Roger.' It's got the same crew system, the same music, and even the first picture is photoshopped. You know that picture that says 'Tempest' on the front? It should say 'Under the Jolly Roger.' Still, it's a good replica of the original.”
