  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally perceived as simplistic and aimed at a younger audience, reminiscent of children's animated franchises, with a standard high fantasy plot involving elemental stones. While some players find it charming and engaging, particularly in the context of open-world exploration and naval combat, others criticize it for lacking depth and polish, with room for improvement in dialogue and character development. Overall, it offers a decent narrative experience but does not strive for complexity or groundbreaking storytelling.

    • “The story is interesting so far, and I'm very much enjoying that each island is sort of a small dungeon that you can travel to while exploring the open seas, collecting items to craft with and picking fights with other ships.”
    • “[Charming and engaging story, fun open-world exploration and naval combat, strong soundtrack and sound design].”
    • “Decent story and voice acting.”
    • “The story is very standard high fantasy 'collect the stones of elemental power' fare.”
    • “The story is also pretty laughable.”
    • “Just don't expect a polished smooth experience with a groundbreaking storyline and award-winning voice acting.”
  • gameplay
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the cozy platforming experience after several hours, while others criticize it for its shallow combat mechanics and lack of depth. Although it may satisfy those looking for a pirate-themed action title, it fails to deliver addictive gameplay or engaging intrigue, leading some to deem it not worth the price.

    • “It feels cozy and I'm enjoying it very much after 8 hours of gameplay.”
    • “More depth in combat gameplay, such as more attack moves (for both protagonist and enemies).”
    • “Gameplay: very good.”
    • “The gameplay is just mediocre at best, and in my opinion, this game is not worth the asking price.”
    • “More depth in combat gameplay is needed, such as more attack moves for both the protagonist and enemies.”
    • “[Shallow combat mechanics, initially off-putting visual style]”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally praised for their colorful and solid art style, contributing to a vibrant pirate-themed open world. However, some users feel that the overuse of a stylized cartoon aesthetic has become clichéd, suggesting that certain effects like chromatic aberration should be removed to enhance overall quality. Overall, the graphics are considered very good, but opinions vary on the originality of the visual style.

    • “Colorful and solid art style.”
    • “Very piratey, open world single player with that stylized cartoon look.”
    • “Graphics: very good.”
    • “It should be completely removed, and the graphic quality would improve heavily.”
    • “Very piratey, open world single player with that stylized cartoon look; there's so much media coming out with this same 'clean' aesthetic, it feels done to death.”
    • “Very piratey, open world single player with that stylized cartoon look; there's so much media coming out with this same 'clean' aesthetic, it feels done to death.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally well-received, with a good soundtrack that complements the vibrant environments and enhances the overall experience. While not universally praised as exceptional, it effectively supports the game's exploration and combat elements, contributing positively to the immersive atmosphere. Players appreciate that the music is engaging enough to keep them playing with it on throughout their journey.

    • “It's okish, not amazing but it has a few songs that match perfectly the vibes and environment of the game, and it doesn't bother at all.”
    • “I played the whole game with the music on, so that's a good point.”
    • “There is some great exploration sailing around in an open world, collecting gear for crafting and upgrading your ship, weapons and costumes, skill tree upgrading, banter with associates that you pick up on the way, great soundtrack too!”
    • “The music feels repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged during long play sessions.”
    • “While the game has a charming atmosphere, the soundtrack doesn't quite match the vibrant visuals and often falls flat.”
    • “The background music is forgettable and doesn't enhance the overall experience, leaving it feeling empty.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is generally perceived as light and suitable for children and early teenagers, making it a potentially enjoyable experience for younger audiences. However, many adult players find it too simplistic and occasionally boring, suggesting that it may not resonate as well with older gamers.

    • “Apart from that, it's more than enough for a funny adventure.”
    • “It's a funny game, but too simple and a little boring in some aspects (at least for an adult, of course). However, it has potential for kids, so if you are a parent, this might be for you and your kiddos.”
    • “A funny little pirate game for kids and early teenagers, but it may be skippable for most adults.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is a mixed bag; while it runs smoothly on higher-end hardware like the 4090, users report significant performance drops during rain and occasional stutters, even on powerful setups. Additionally, issues such as pop-in of objects can be distracting, though players tend to acclimate to them over time. Overall, while the game performs adequately, there is room for improvement.

    • “In terms of performance, the game runs smoothly on my 3050 Ti, but you can feel it could do better. It performs poorly when it rains, causing significant FPS drops.”
    • “Some of the cons are that the game still has a few bugs (which I have reported), and performance has the occasional stutter. However, it's not so bad for me on a 4090, i9 13900, and 64GB laptop. The pop-in of LOD on islands and ships/crates in the open world while sailing can be a little distracting, but you don't notice it after a while.”

    • “The optimization is lacking, leading to frequent frame drops and long loading times, which really detracts from the overall experience.”
    • “Despite having a powerful setup, the game struggles with optimization, resulting in inconsistent performance and visual glitches that pull you out of immersion.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users indicate that the game currently suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, suggesting it requires significant polishing to achieve a stable and enjoyable experience.

    • “But at this moment, it still needs a lot of polishing before I can call it a great game, aside from bugs and glitches.”
    • “The game crashes frequently, making it nearly unplayable at times.”
    • “I encountered numerous bugs that disrupted my gameplay experience.”
