Captain Bones: Prologue

Captain Bones: Prologue

The Ambience alone is worth downloading this game. It sounds very calming and if you love the ocean you will like this game. There isn’t much going on in this game yet, but somehow it doesn’t suffer from that. If you need explosions and constant gun fighting, then you probably won’t look twice at downloading this as it isn’t for you. If you want a lite island exploration game that is also about crafting and fighting off sharks while diving for treasure, and you don’t want to pay for it, then this IS for you.

The prologue appears to be the same as the demo, which I’ve played for about 3.5 hours. It’s definitely a fun prologue, though there isn’t a ton to do outside of the story. There are some chests to find and loot, but ultimately, there isn’t anything worth buying with your booty. There is a scrap merchant who sells ship parts, but no ships that you can repair/build outside of the raft, which degrades quickly. Having a couple islands to sail to and a ship would go a long way, though I suspect that will be a motivation to buy the full game.

It’s not bad, but the nights are pitch black, which has no meaning at all. Explore, explore and explore, how big is this world? Lots of chests with goodies to collect.

So the nights are a big turn off. Just standing there in the darkness, I want to move, but I don’t see my enemy.

Maybe it has a purpose in PvP mode, but if one has brightness control on their monitor, it’s an advantage.

And for what it is worth in general: This game should be FREE !

I do like, that when you kill a Cannibal, that it drops health potions. Take out the day/night cycle. If you can, can you @developer or is this what is possible? And if you try to add something, put like a bejeweled chest in a temple or something. Who ever gets it, get a huge bonus in points. But what is the use of the points, especially in single player?

ATLAS

ATLAS

the two words that describe a game like this are: DIGITAL HEROIN. the game is weirdly addictive but i will never recommend it to anyone as much of the time you are just staring at the screen for 3 hours while the boat moves- cant look away for even 15 seconds because a bunch of enemy ships may just appear in view in front of you, requiring 3 seconds of reaction time to steer out of the way, or else you lose tens-of-hours of work.. that’s fine for immersion, albeit a tad harsh, but the reason this is a negative review is such that the product is filled with bugs and spelling mistakes that have been present since game launch. new updates often re-break old features that were previously fixed on a repeated basis (sextant buff/autopilot.. coordinate space transforms arent that hard guys!). utter and complete world wipes happen upon developers' whim, so if you get into the game late in a season then you may as well not play because you will be so far behind the career players who got in 10seconds after new season and claimed every island and covered them with fence foundations so that nobody can build. and by the time you learn the game then the entire world undergoes another wipe which results in making game harder to suppress the PVP veterans; leaving anyone new to the PVE game in the dust. long story short: developers are struggling to tame their existing playerbase with no remaining capability to improve the game for the general public. its been almost 3 years since public release for paid product.. they cant claim “early access” anymore.

This is the worst best game ever….

It’s pretty, it’s fun to play* and with a private community to avoid the toxic levels build up over the years from the wrongdoing of the devs, amazing and fun.

It is… however… full of bugs, without any sight of those ever being fixed. Arrogant devs who refuse to help people who are trying to improve on the game with mods and who ignore all feedback. No, all… feedback is ignored. They deploy enthusiasts to run their discords and take all the heat while hiding in the corner.

Did you like Pirates? Do you like turn-based combat? Do you like random maps and exploring?

Then this game could be something for you. For an early access Indie title, it’s got surprisingly good graphics (especially the sea), a real story in single player mode, and some funny mystic creatures. There’s a touch of Age of Wonders, but the battles are less tactical.

POSITIVE

  • good graphics

  • mystic creatures pimp the pirates scenario

  • nice story (no Heavy Rain, though)

  • high replay value (random quests, random maps, hotseat mode)

Real player with 9.4 hrs in game

Looks amazing, nice atmosphere and unique interesting game mechanics. I like it!

You know where the journey is heading. With some little improvements in EA and more content I will be able to put hours in this :)!

Good strategy will lead you to your victory and will demolish your friends, but don’t forget about the immersive story though. Good price for a good game! Go on like this.

Playing status: 51/52 achievement, finished the game (I don’t know how to get the last achievement)

Grindy Achievement(s): Yes (~10 achievements which can take ~20.6h to finish).

Optional Achievement(s): Yes (~41 achievements).

Difficult Achievement(s): No.

Intro

The farming sim genre has been on the rise recently. They usually have similar mechanics as Harvest Moon, although other games try to mix it with other genres. Seeing that Peachleaf Pirates is a combination of point and click and farming sim elements, I become curious about how the result will be, especially since both don’t seem to be similar in the control scheme.

UPDATED ***

Thanks to the developer for letting me know about the information, i now finished the game.

I really enjoyed the farming side of the game, the combat was also fun, but i found the click and point side of the game a bit repeditive, just like the last part of the game i had to criss cross the map i think 4 times just to finish in 1 day.

Overall 6/10


after 20 hours i give up on this “point and click RPG” parts of the game, its not clear at all what to do , i see multiple side quests but they aren’t logged on the journal , i spend 40 minutes to complete a quest to save a parrot only to find out it didn’t continue the story at all and only gave me a discount at a shop i no longer need to use. Another i found a “winning ticket” to a casino which wouldn’t let you into the casino and i assume its for voodoo but the voodoo woman has dissappeared. Once this game has a properly designed walkthrough to help you when you get stuck this game is a big thumbs down. I really was enjoying all of the other elements of the game but the “point and click problem solving” needs a lot more “problem solving” from the developer. A hint system or something and ad all the minor things to quests and let us know what actually moves the story forward and what is a side quest like the parrot mission.

Salt 2: Shores of Gold

Salt 2: Shores of Gold

Salt 2: Shores of Gold is an open world pirate game with a focus on exploration, survival, and crafting. Set sail across an infinite ocean with just you and your ship. Explore islands filled with caves, ruins, pirate camps, towns, and other mysterious places. The world is procedurally generated, so you’ll never run out of islands to explore. Hunt and fish for survival, find resources to craft rare items, decorate your ship, go on quests, level up your skills, and fight legendary pirates. Salt 2 also features RPG aspects such as loot rarities and talents so you can customize your character to fit your playstyle.

What Makes Salt Unique?

You might be wondering what makes Salt different than other pirate games. There’s a few things. For one, we’ve put our focus on the single player exploration experience. This means you don’t need friends to help you manage your boat or to explore the world. This isn’t a game focused on naval combat, but instead on PVE content such as exploring the sea, going on quests, crafting and survival elements, leveling up skill systems and unlocking talent trees, and discovering interesting places and loot. Because of this focus on exploration, we’ve also made the world procedurally generated so you can explore in any direction for as long as you want.

Explore an Infinite World

We wanted to create a pirate game that focused on exploration and adventure first and foremost. You start in the middle of an infinite ocean with just you and your ship, pick a direction, and set sail across a procedurally generated world. Experience pure freedom in where you go and what you do. Discover uncharted islands filled with quests, pirates, and hundreds of points of interest such as ancient ruins, caves, pirate camps, villages, and other mysterious places. Even though the islands are procedural, our points of interests are hand crafted with unique secrets, puzzles, and design.

Fish and Hunt to Survive

You’ll need some food to survive. Grab a fishing pole and toss a lure overboard to catch some fish or grab your bow and head into the woods to hunt some wildlife.

Craft and Upgrade

As you explore the world you will discover tons of resources that can be used to craft new items, armor, weapons, and upgrades for your ship.

Decorate Your Ship

We want your ship to be your home at sea. While exploring the world you will find items to upgrade your ship, decorating it and making it unique to you. And you won’t need other people to help manage your ship. It’s just you, the sea, and the endless horizon.

Level Up

Unlock talent trees for different skills such as combat, fishing, crafting, hunting, and get unique perks for your character.

Loot Epic Gear

Salt 2 features an RPG style loot system with different rarities of armor and weapons, and interesting stats to tailor to the play style you want. Each piece of gear also has randomized talents. So whether you are crafting a high level item, or hunting down a pirate captain for an epic sword, you’ll always be searching for that new rare item with the perfect roll.

Fight Legendary Pirates

The islands are full of dangerous enemies. Fight legendary pirates, bosses, and dangerous wildlife in your hunt for adventure.

Go on Quests

Dock your ship at a sea port and pick up quests and commissions from guilds, the townsfolk, and merchants.

How is Salt 2 Different from the Original?

If you’ve played Salt 1, you might be wondering what is new in the sequel. For starters, a complete visual overhaul. We are switching to a new rendering pipeline allowing for much better graphical fidelity. This means brand new models, textures, shaders, lighting, animations, UI, and performance improvements. We are also revamping the island generation system for more varied and interesting looking islands. In addition to that, Salt 2 will have hundreds of hand crafted points of interest such as caves to make exploration a much more deep and unique experience.

We are also putting a much bigger focus on crafting, survival, and ship decoration mechanics. In Salt 2 these mechanics will be deeper than the original and feed directly into the gameplay loop. You’ll also be able to level up your weapons and unlock talents that fit your playstyle. And of course Salt 2 will include brand new quests, new gear, improved combat mechanics, and a new soundtrack.
