Ahoy, matey! How about slicing up some sea beasts and sending a couple of rivals to feed the kraken? Curse of Pirates be a true action roguelike, inspired by Vampire Survivors and Hades! Set sail upon the high seas, gather ye brave crew, and stand firm against the relentless tides of foes!
I really like the idea of this game. A pirate theme in the roguelite genre is a breath of fresh air. But I don't think this one is there yet.
Pros:
Soundtrack and sounds are good
Enemies seem to be thought out. Getting attacked by a bunch of parrots is funny
Maps are decent. Vibe is right
Cons:
The UI needs some work. Clicking on an upgrade back at...
perfect game to pass the time, and I liked it
Pretty chaotic once the screen fills with enemies, in a good way. I like the vibe!
will not work. Neither controller nor deck respond so i am stuck on main menu. *Update* A patch was released pretty quickly I now have full control! The game is aiight...... Grinder though. Takes forever to progress and prepare { IF possible} to be positively SWARMED about 3 minutes in, every run. Would be nice if there was a difficulty setting.
Curse of Pirates is a solid pirate-flavored take on the Vampire Survivors formula. You sail around, fight endless waves of sea monsters and rival pirates, pick up upgrades, and build crazy combos with your crew.
The pirate theme fits really well, the action is fast and satisfying, and the different builds keep runs interesting. Feels good to mow down...
