Pirates - Boarding! — About this game
Follow the logbook’s current mission through a mixture of island platform routes, trading and sea battles. Explore on foot for gold and tasks, then use a boat to reach the areas covered by the chart pieces you have found. Better ships and repairs help with hostile vessels, so check your resources before sailing into another fight. Begin with the first island request and complete it before wandering for later treasure. Mini-games become available through encounters in the adventure; the separate wireless Ship Ahead activity is a two-person game. The story advances through tasks and discoveries rather than an unrestricted naval sandbox.
