The mini-games were good as well and include finding symbols to open a box, place statues in the proper position by moving their limbs, find your way through the jungle by using a map, place weights to position a bridge, and others that are fairly simple. Several of the HOS were multi-level and even though they are familiar were enjoyable. One HOP scene I really liked is where I had to find clothes so that I could camouflage myself as a pirate. In the demo I only saw one scene where we must find five each of two different items to open the list – a mechanism that has been quite overused. The HOS are familiar and what we normally see from this developer. The graphics are absolutely top-notch create the pirates’ island haven to perfection. The gameplay modes include the custom setting where you can select your hint and skip times as well as a few other options. Shortly after your capture you find an unlikely ally in the ship’s captain who helps you escape and starts you on your adventure. There is the Pirate King, who rather resembles the fabled Blackbeard, and others who are bent on destroying him. Unfortunately, you are kidnapped just as you arrive, separating you from your father and putting you into the perilous situation of walking the line between warring factions. YO-HO-HO ITS A PIRATES LIFE FOR ME You play the game as the daughter of the governor of an island in the West Indies who has finally come to visit your father after the passing of your mother. Whether you get the CE or SE you will enjoy the fast pace adventure with plenty to do.ĭefinitely recommended. There is of course Achievements and in the Extras you can replay the mini-games and HOPs, find 25 souvenirs in the Souvenir Room as well as all the other usual extras that we get.
So, do you get the CE or SE? In the CE you have 41 bottles to find throughout the game and bonus. There are games in there for everyone's taste. There are a huge range of mini-games to play, ranging from easy to very hard. You can also play Match 3 if you fancy a change from HOPs. There is also one morphing object per HOP which morph quite slowly. These had a really good challenge to them. These are interactive straightforward, silhouette, find items and unlock keys and two silhouette pictures where you need to find the item (for example a paw and fish = cat). The hidden object games have a great variety.
The music is fast orchestral which I had on loud throughout the game. Its easy to find everything you need because the scenes are crisp and well drawn. The graphics are superb - colourful and well defined. That's probably why it always takes me more than 10 hours to play a game! I love this function because I like a challenge and can turn everything off. In Custom mode you can turn off what you want (like Hint and Skip to make it more challenging) and leave in what you do like (like areas of interest in the interactive map).
This game is fabulous and so worth playing. DEFEAT THE PIRATE KING - GREAT GAME REVIEW FROM COMPLETED GAME AND BONUS
