The AGS Panel is a team of AGS forum veterans who play all of the games here, and give them ratings from one to five cups. The rating system is as follows:
1 CupNot serious entertainment
2 CupsA reasonable game, worth a try
3 CupsA good game, worth playing
4 CupsA great game, well worth your time
5 CupsAn outstanding, must-play game!
Feel free to disagree with the panel's rating, and please don't be offended if you think your game has been under-rated!

(Why has my game been rated 1 cup?)

Close window
If your game has been rated 1 cup, please don't be offended! It's common for your first game release to get a 1-cup rating, due to the game having a lack of polish and flair -- which is understandable, because you're just getting started!

Please understand that the main purpose of the ratings is to help potential game players find high quality, bug-free games to play. You've probably learnt a lot about AGS as a result of making your first game -- so why not use that knowledge to start afresh, and do even better with your next game!

About this game

Somewhere along the east coast of Africa, pirates have attacked a luxury yacht! They have taken a few seemingly wealthy passengers as their hostages, a family and an old man, hoping to collect a hefty ransom for each of them. When the hostage negotiations go awry, the rescue duties land on the weak shoulders of an unlikely hero. Little does he know that the ship's crew, that stands in his way, is composed of some very weird and silly individuals.

Brilliant Game, Beautiful artwork and enjoyable challenging puzzles. Now that it is free there is no excuse whatsoever to not play it!

The visual style was quirky and enjoyable, good music, funny characters and good writing. What I especially enjoyed were the puzzles - very well designed and quite diverse. They were also nicely balanced - had to get my thinking hat on a few times but never needed to resort to asking for a hint. The karaoke puzzle was pure genius! The only thing I wasn't keen on was the use of profanity which felt very unnecessary.

Overall this was a fine adventure game, a nice length and good challenge.
