- Battle on land and sea! - Arm yourself to the teeth with a plethora of swords, guns, cannons and armour as you fight against pirates, thieves, wild animals and mythical creatures. Can you become the master and commander of a unique ""rock-paper-scissors"" turn-based combat system?
- Customize your ship! - Load your vessel up to the deck with cannons and it will be formidable in combat, but you'll need to make sure you have the necessary cargo space for resources to support your crew.
