About this game

Available exclusively for Netflix members.

Make 'em walk the plank! Set sail, fire cannon balls and be the last boat standing among your enemies in this swashbuckling adventure.

Do you have what it takes to rule the seven seas?

It's a multiplayer battle royale. Choose two crew members and a trusty ship, then prepare for battle with players from around the world. Use cannon fire and special abilities to send your enemies to the bottom of the ocean.

Be the last ship left sailing to win! Up to 16 players can join the skirmish. Keep your ship from being destroyed to avoid elimination, and make your enemies suffer.

In between battles, upgrade your crew and ship and unlock new lands to explore.

From Amuzo Games and Rogue Games.

Ratings and reviews

This game has the potential to be really fun. It's a little buggy at times, sometimes you can clip through islands. The app is advertised as being multiplayer and certainly makes you feel like it is multiplayer, but I keep ending up in games that are 100 percent full of level 1 bots. Now, there could be a glitch that shows there level as 1 when it's actually higher, or perhaps the online population is so low I end up not getting matched with any real players. The gameplay is good overall.

Such a solid base for a game ruined by the tiny selection of weapons/ships, bots that have high level gear but stink, a total lack of progress or a reason to play. Whoever sold this to Netflix already got their check and has no reason to develop the game to it's potential (I've actually discovered the one case where microtransactions, as a motivation for the developer, would have made the game better!)

The concept is fun but the controls are horrible, especially when you are in game modes that take you out of your ship. I'm still playing it and it still has its fun, but dang is this game clunky. Some polish in future updates will go a long way with this game.
