Exploring islands may reveal smuggler's lairs or hidden treasure caves to add to one's coffers, while towns are filled with buildings such as taverns, shipyards, and churches that players can enter to purchase items or to speak with characters. While sailing across the sea, players are responsible for steering, raising and lowering sails, monitoring crew and prisoners, and managing cargo and armaments.Ĭomputer-controlled characters will tag along while players enter towns and travel across islands, and even join in on fights. As in titles like Pirates: The Legend of Black Kat, the action is divided into two parts: sailing and visiting islands or towns. As players become more proficient at sailing, their attributes will gradually increase and non-player characters may join their ranks. Players begin the game by creating a character with limited skills in the areas of ship control, trading, fighting, and various other traits. Those with a taste for blood and vengeance can become a bounty hunter, or the true freedom of a pirate's life can be enjoyed with no strings attached. Players can work for a European power to lead a squadron, or forgo the pillage and plundering altogether for merchant sailing. The player's career is not locked into one path, however.
Blending role-playing elements with the strategy of ship-to-ship combat, Pirates of the Caribbean offers players a chance to set sail on the high seas as a treasure-hunting pirate.
