Yarr hoist the main sail! As a new pirate game has been released for the ZX Spectrum called ‘The Fate of the Pirate’ by Ariel Endaraues and PcnonoGames. A game that puts you in the boots of a pirate captain, and must defy the elements—and fate itself—, to recover the souls of your wife and child that have been swallowed by the sea. To coincide with this rather decent game that also features lots of mini games, make sure to check out the latest footage and game info below.
Here’s the latest. “The Fate of the Pirate is a high-seas adventure where your crew’s destiny swings between fortune and ruin. Across 33 days at sea, you’ll face storms, sea monsters, sword duels, and treacherous taverns. Text events will test your judgment as a captain, while action mini-games will decide your survival. Along the way, you’ll visit the shop to resupply and encounter the mysterious Ferryman, who demands a price every few days to let you pass. Can you keep your gold, your morale, your life, and your ship afloat until the end?”
