this was one of the best games on steam for almost 10 years, very interactive with a small(because no advertising) and consistent community, its a shame the creators gave up on it... maybe they can revive it if they make a second...

this game is amazing but there's not many players as it is rather old this is one of the first few games I ever got on steam i love it but it doesen't run to well but my pc is not meant for gaming and also the ping is like 170 on some servers but it is amazing and if the developers ever come back to this game and do some patches with a few minor bugs and just fix up a few rough edges it could be amazing and it is great but a bit rough around the edges and not many players anymore 10/10 would recommend

What happened to this game? It was a good team-based game. Can someone buy the studio and continue the development....

There is something about working with a crew in the middle of a chaotic naval battle that is just thrilling. Loading cannons, repairing leaks and yelling at my teammates made me feel fully immersed. Boarding enemy ships was intense and hilarious at the same time. Every battle is different and victories feel hard earned. I kept coming back because no match is ever the same.
