Isabella Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 If you haven't seen it, or played it, get it. I got a copy of it last weekend, and it's great. You have to provide wenching, grog, and gambling to make yer pirates happy. You have to create fear for your captives and ships for your Captains! I love the cats that wonder around the island thinking these comments of "I own you." And "Serve me Human!" They have shops later on that make hats, and wooden legs fer yer pirates, long with other things. A Pirate hatching aviary, which is hysterical. It's a great game if you haven't seen it, along the lines of the Civilization games by Serria, but since it's Pirate based it's better! But I really have to say the Jamaican and Island style music is awesome, with steel drums, and French island songs, it's nifty! They are now selling the music on CD because folks loved it so much. I give it 4 pints up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilgemunky Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 "Can't shiver me timbers without any timber!" I love that game, and I REALLY love the sound track. I ordered the CD last month and it was worth every penny. If you've not yet tried it, I'd also steer you towards Puzzle Pirates, an online pirate game where you get to join crews with other actual players. Loads of fun - the only thing it's missing is good background music, which is why I bought the Tropico 2 cd I AM BILGEMUNKY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isabella Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Ooo! Cool! I'm always up for new games. I got the Pirates of the Carribean game, but have to get more harddrive space for it, before I load it, can't wait to go online with that one. I'm checking out the link you sent me! I also checked out your site, and was like 'Yeah! A game geeks" Lovingly said of course! Thanks for the link for Puzzle Pirates. It loaded and I'm off to look! :) :) Izzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshuaRed Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Tropico 2 is fabulous! Big time fun. Just frustrating not being able to sail off on adventures with yer pirate captains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isabella Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Agreed! I'd love to be on deck. There's a game review I read I'll find it, that you are on board, and controling the ship. Looks cool! Izzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 We discovered a great new board game that was just being released at the PiP festival: "Dread Pyrate"!! Check it out! Lots of fun and adventure! http://www.oldcenturyclassics.com/dread_pirate.html Sir Nigel - aka "Sir Freelancealot"; aka "Ace of Cads"; aka "JACKPOT!!" (cha-CHING!)

Isabella Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Oh that's cool!! Imagine 75 years ago a similar one probably sold for five bucks. I bookmarked it. That would make a fine burfday present ifin' I wasn't needin' a new sewing machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isabella Posted January 16, 2004 Author Share Posted January 16, 2004 Someone told me to check my Java, but I told him the Coffee was fine, it was the game that wasn't working! *bows* I still dont' understand what's wrong. I've tried the download three times, and I am still not playing... Go figure. Neptune is not likin' my face today I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilgemunky Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Sorry so many folks are having trouble with the install - don't know what's up. Mucky_Pete - my name in puzzle pirates is (surprisingly) Bilgemunky. I'm a senior officer with the Sea Ogres. Sadly I haven't been able to play much this month, things are just too busy. I love that game dearly, but it does take a time commitment to play properly. Most games you can just stop playing and pick up where you left off whenever you like, but in this one things continue without you, and people start wondering where you've gone off to.

JoshuaRed Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Beware the Dread Pirate game. My wife got it for me for Xmas. Sure, it's BEAUTIFULLY made, but it's just not much fun. It's little more than die rolling and is no deeper than say, Parcheesi or Sorry. My wife and I plan to write up our own rules for more in-depth play.

Mucky_Pete Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Wierd that cos I never have any problems. I used to be Cap'n o The Sea Dogs, but like Mr Munky said, it takes a lot o commitment to keep the job now the games gone public proper. I gave the Captaincy to someone who was on ALL the time, and now I am just First Mate. Means I can have more fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freighthag Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Do you think Dread Pirate would be fun for a pint sized pirate? I've a 5 year old I've infected with Pyrate fever. She's been playing tropico 2 with me off and on for almost a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
