How to Play Pirates: Duels on the High Seas
Quick start
Choose a story difficulty, practise forward, reverse and turning, then line the side cannons toward the first enemy and collect its useful drops.
Controls
Left/right on the D-pad steer, R moves forward and L reverses. A fires side cannons and B uses a secondary weapon. The lower touch screen shows the map and crew ability icons.
Pirates: Duels on the High Seas — About this game
Pilot the ship through channels, lining up broadside cannon shots while avoiding walls and enemy fire. Gold and weapon pickups float in the water, so sail over a useful item and check the lower-screen map for the next route. A special weapon has limited stock, while crew abilities can change speed or repairs. Start slowly enough to learn turning and reverse before fighting in a narrow area. Gates and larger enemies create combat goals along the voyage. This adventure stays aboard the ship: it does not switch into island swordfights or a captain’s fencing duel.
