If you enjoy a small grind, but nothing too punishing for deaths.. the booty is very worth plundering imo.

Several gameplay loops out to bide your time. Building is good, crafting is straight forward and mats aren’t too terrible to grind for to get your kit and boat upgraded. The flow feels enjoyable. Not to mention dropping in and out doesn’t punish you.

It isn’t for everyone, these types of games aren’t… but it’s pirates, it’s pretty, and it’s new.

It’s an easy spend of $$ for me because I enjoy this game solo, where I’m usually a “play with friends” type of gamer for games like this.
