Pirate Island Rescue
Pirate Island Rescue* is a fun little casual side scrolling platformer.
Pirate Island Rescue is a simple platformer but it’s looks nice and is fun to play. The platformer part is pretty easy but you need to be cautious of some of the enemies, particularly the ones with the pistols. It’s easy to pick up and play and is a great way to kill a few hours if you want a relaxing but still fun game.
Hint- sometimes when you kill the boss pirate at the end of an island there are a few pirates waiting between him and the boat, if your not careful you’ll get shot.

This is a fun little game that you can easily complete achievements in and is also a great time killer. The graphics are good for a side scroller and the controls are very fluid. The levels are procedurally generated (randomized). If you are looking for an easy and relaxing game, this is it!

Assassins vs Pirates
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a78WaYxZRh8
Assassins vs Pirates is a fun couch co-op arena game. Online lobbies are pretty much empty so I can’t stress enough, if you have friends to play this game, whether local or online, its a MUST HAVE. If you dont have people to play with, I suggest you wait till the price drops a bit, because it is an extremely easy to grasp fun game but the lack of bots makes it heavily reliant on other people.

Really cool and fun game - not really too much in the way of story, but really fun after a whole day of work. It can get pretty dynamic at times :) This game was the reason I bought a controller. Honestly I would recomend it for anyone who doesn’t have the time to immerse themselves into a story-driven game.
In conclusion:
Awesome game for a quick stress relief :)

Unearned Bounty
This is a fun multiplayer game, with fast paced battles/matches. The game has so far perfomed well on my resource-humble pc, with no lag/latency/BS emcountered except in one game only! props!
So far this ombination of simple, fun, fast paced action with the ease of picking up matches is what keeps me playing,
Notes:
- matchmaking: I tried the matchmaking option once, which was also the last time. That was the firt time I played. The timer kept going but I was not connected to any match.
SInce then, I’ve used the custom game option. Custom game presents me with 1 to 4 rooms, along with the player count in each. occasionally I will have to wait 1 to 3 mins ad refresh the list of custom games

This game shows some real promise. At the moment there are a few bugs and not alot of content but the devs seem active and if they can flesh out the objectives in the battle then this could become a really great moba ship brawler. If they can add cross play PS4 / X360 to help with the population then thatd be even better!
Matchmaking has a few issues at the moment, becasue it’s currently based in NA you may not have the best ping, you can get a group of mates together and host a server though if you want to play on local ping, join the Discord too, it’s slowly starting to grow!

Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion
All the time I spent on this game was just hunting for achievements, side questing, exploring, and level grinding. But aside from that, the main story of this game is quite short, and it can be completed in about 2-3hrs. All in all, I think its a fun game and if not the first game that AT has with free roam and an open world setting. The turn-based battles are alright, with the game explaining how status debuffs work, elemental advantages, and buffs, it’s pretty easy to understand and master the game with just basic knowledge. You can pretty much destroy any boss you encounter by just playing against their weaknesses (every character has different elemental skills). But, the game’s pretty much over once you get BMO to join you, you’ll see what I mean when you play it. For the price it has right now, I think its worth it IMO, but better to wait for a sale to get it.

This is a casual turn based RPG based on the Adventure Time world including many of the shows famed voice actors. The game plays out like an extended episode or even movie with a pirates theme that gives off a WindWaker vibe with the boat you use to travel from the strange worlds.
The game is poorly optimised for PC with chopy frames and clunky feel and very poor menus, but it does all work and if you can get past the games annoyances your likely to enjoy this immersive world. Theres enough detail to make you feel like you really are in the Adventure Time world as oposed to a game developers intepretation of it.

Risen 2: Dark Waters
Risen 2 is a third person open world action roleplaying game made by Piranha Bytes, the team that gave us the Gothic games and of course the first Risen game. It’s hard to talk about Risen 2 without referring to their previous games, which I’ll call ‘PB games’ for short.
To summarize: Risen 2 sometimes feels like a ‘PB game lite’ but it’s certainly not completely dumbed down from previous PB games. The atmosphere and the ‘feel’ of the PB games is there, so I’ll enjoy playing this game more than I would 9 out of 10 similar games. The fact that melee combat is almost as bad as it was in Gothic 3 and the absence of ‘real’ magic are the only two problems that certainly knock off some points in the final score for Risen 2.

It is very difficult to recommend this game because depending on your personal preferences, it can either be a wealth of unpleasantness or it can, as I have in the end perceived it, be a gem of extraordinary substance and enjoyment although in a wierd way.
Warning: This will be quite a lenghty review where I try to outline in detail the great drawbacks of the game as well as the great features about it.
First off, I will state all of the unpleasant aspects of this game and if anything I mention seems unacceptable, better to stay away from it as it is a game that not everyone will enjoy and it can be difficult to grasp.

ONE PIECE: PIRATE WARRIORS 4
Was really enjoying the game, and then the game ate my save and 3 hour progress. Don’t recommend.
– Real player with 54.6 hrs in game
Very satisfying combat. Although I would recommend Reshade for the graphics as some ambient occlusion and contrast go a long way for this game’s visuals. Also, this game is a bit short on content, definitely worth it if it’s on sale however.

One Piece Pirate Warriors 3
So I really wanted this game for months, but the price was too steep for me. When it went down temporarily in November, I jumped on the chance to buy it. Now that I have had a few months to play it, here is what I think.
I don’t really care for the whole argument about shading, brightness, or any of that. But there are some drawbacks with the graphics. First of all, most of the common “cannon fodder” enemies have their heads moving away from their bodies. I mean it is really easy to see that the heads are simply not attached and are weaving away from the bodies. I thought that was kind of annoying. To add to this, you will often see their weapons floating right next to them rather than being held. On the plus side, it kind of makes you feel like you are killing a bunch of Jedi or Sith, just pretend those weapons are being held by the Force. However, part of these faults can also be found on major characters like Kuro, Aokiji, Usopp, and Ivankov but with these guys the problem is the hair. With Kuro you may find his hair floating a few inches away from his head, making it seem like he is bald. After a few moments of laughing it became a little annoying. As for the others, the dynamics between their head and their hair is annoying in that the hair will often move independently and block your view of the character’s faces. It may not seem like much for some, but I was really aggravated by that.

02.05.2016 REVIEW
Disclaimer:
Due to disagreements with certain users who kept indirect insults as a priority matter, I am enticed to post the following notice: This review is based on my personal experience with the game from approximately 90 hours of playtime. There’s also an edited part elaborating this in the bottom.
tl;dr review:
If you’re a One Piece or Dynasty Warriors fan, buy the game. If you’re not a big fan of either and are expecting something state-of-the-art or unique, pass on it.)

YOU ARE THE COMMANDER
The Great Sky War has stalled, it has been almost a year since the last battle. War has been a good business. Without it, you have been resorting to freelancing to get by. An offer arrived one morning, from some big-name trade and security company. It is an honest and stable job, so you took it right away. Now you found yourself at the Segson Archipelago, unknowingly involved in something far greater than you ever wished for.
THE SHATTERED WORLD
Eons ago, the Great Cataclysm shattered Spheara into pieces. Wild magic wind engulfed the globe, lifting the grounds hanging afloat in the sky. Spheara is the world in the sky above the deadly and dark ocean. Life in such a world is difficult and perilous but humanity and civilizations found ways to prosper.
THE MAGICAL CONTINENT
The place in the center of our focus is the continental group of landmass called Europa. These landmasses above the great ocean below is classified into three belts or rings by their vastly different distance above the sea level. Different nations and cultures developed on different archipelagos, at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, they struggle to define their coexistence.
THE KINGDOM IN TURMOIL
The Kingdom of Suthseg has long been the sovereignty over the Sagson Archipelago, a cluster of three major drifting landmasses with plenty of rich minor isles. The Archipelago also holds the key prominent point of interest, that is the Great Mana Coil, the largest gateway allowing airships to descend and ascend across belts.
THE CHARACTERS
Destiny has brought about two young souls and two patriarchs together. All strive towards different things in life and want a better world for themselves and those who come after them. What will be their legacies?
UPGRADE YOUR SHIPS
You can make, buy, or take ship parts from many sources and fit them into a wide variety of airship frames. The balance between speed, agility, durability, firepower, and transport efficiency are key to various strategies and tactics once entered into battle.
BATTLE ADVERSARIES
Exercise the best use of tactics and skills of the crewmen. Push the capability of an airship to its limit and seize the day to enjoy the spoil of victory.
TRAVEL ACROSS EUROPA
The continent is vast. It has many things to offer, many stories to tell, treasures to collect, and mysteries to unravel. The measurement unit and time taken during travel are measured in real-time and real units. Even though the player can accelerate time, this can infuse them with a strong sense of immersion.
TRADE WITH MERCHANTS
Many ports and merchants offer parts, ships, and all sorts of other items that would aid the player in their quests for fame and fortune. Merchants sell and buy specific things, demand and supplies are also limited to the nature of the settlement they are from.
BUILD INDUSTRIES
Producing, processing, transporting, assembling, and manufacturing goods and weapons are beats that keep Europa going. While skyfaring, freelancing, and privateering could earn a ship captain a good fortune; supporting and arming a fleet would require other kinds of ingenuity.
