Summary

In Pirates of the Caribbean Online, players create and customize their own pirate, captain their own ship, and assemble a crew of their fellow rogues in an effort to become the Caribbean’s most legendary Pirate. Along the way, players will interact with characters made popular by the films, like Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann, and will also encounter a host of new characters and enemies unique to the game. To become the most notorious pirate, players must forge alliances, hunt for buried treasure, battle evil undead forces, and use cunning and strategy to outwit their foes. [Disney Online]

Game Chronicles

Whimsical, lighthearted, and youngster-friendly, Pirates of the Caribbean online can be an enjoyable swashbuckling diversion for the entire family, especially if you’re planning to plunder the seas together as a crew.

Gamers' Temple

It won't make anyone want to quit World of Warcraft, but it can be enjoyable enough if you'd like to try out a pirate's life for free.

GameDaily

Although it has a lot of fun parts, they don't fit together as nicely as they could. But the game complements the movies and offers a family-oriented online gaming experience free of charge, although the optional subscription has strong benefits. It just needs a little more time to grow.

GameZone

This is an “MMO lite” game, which means it should be fine for families and kids.

Game Revolution

It’s a kinder, gentler MMO - Nerfed PvP, language filters, and all.

PC Gamer

Pirates of the Caribbean Online is only good for those who want to feel tangentially connected to the movies. [Feb 2008, p.82]

G4 TV

Lag is a constant problem, with characters and enemies often freezing in their tracks for a few moments before warping ahead to make up for time lost. The in-game visuals don’t impress at all.

Dodongo Sweetcheeks gave it a5:
The quests are horribly tedious "errand boy" and "scavenger hunt" affairs. The graphics are choppy, there are bugs galore, and Disney is watching over you every step of the way to make sure you don't swear. That said, the ship combat is really fun and really addictive especially if you can get six other friends to join you on a ship. One person steers and barks orders while the others man the cannons. Some ships you can cripple and then board to take down the enemy crew melee style. Other than that (and blackjack and poker) the game is a grind.

David J. gave it a7:
Is a pretty good game, but there are still a few bugs, sometimes it stops between scenes and the screen pauses during battle. The biggest problem for me is getting other players to crew my ship, but when they do you can kick Pirate but.
