While the RPG and action elements aren't exactly balanced equally, this game may be most appealing to RPG fans who like a bit of excitement in their role-playing experience.
-
We liked the setting, liked the gameplay but ultimately there wasn't enough to keep it in our console for a very long time.
-
An inferior copy of a classic, Swashbucklers isn't worth your time.
-
For most gamers, the clunky ship battles, shallow combat and overall lack of cohesive adventure will have you looking elsewhere rather quickly.
-
It's priced as a budget title, but unless you're a big fan of pirates, there's not a lot here for the average gamer.
-
This just doesn't cut it. There was some potential, and looking at pirates outside of the frilly shirt and rapier era is a good idea. Swashbucklers was executed so poorly it may scare other developers off the concept.
-
From its recycled characters at each port to its recycled gameplay every couple of minutes, I’d suggest you read a book about the Civil War rather play this game.
