Put on your captain's hat and navigate the 3D pirate ship using sand timers in this unique real-time cooperative game.As a member of an adventurous pirate crew, your goal is to be crowned Admiral of the Black, the most feared pirate ship in the Caribbean. To earn this title, you must complete dangerous scenarios in the shortest possible time frame. The most innovative element of the game is that the player uses their own 30-second sand timer as a character to be placed on the ship to perform actions. Each time a player places their own sand timer, they have to wait for the sand to run out to be able to perform the action needed. Each hole in the ship represents an area where you can perform a specific action: turning the ship, loading cannons, shooting enemy ships, repairing damage, and so forth...A Tale of Pirates (previously announced as Admiral of the Black) has ten different scenarios, ranging from ordinary pirating activities like looking and shooting, to kraken-hunting, prison breaks, treasure hunts, and much more. An app for any smartphone or tablet will lead the players along the missions, assist with scenario data, random events, multiple paths, upgrades, and gamestate-saving for later sessions. It also serves as a timer for the individual round as the typical scenario lasts 2-3 rounds, each five minutes long.The players have to react to events and maneuver the ship to fight enemy gunboats, catch rich merchant vessels, and avoid other obstacles. They must communicate to agree and organize things to do, but they have to be quick because time is always ticking.A Tale of Pirates is swift playing with simple rules, but it's exciting and involving, with great interactions among players. Unlike some other real time coop games the stress is present but not dominating. The thirty-second delays, in addition to the intermittent rounds, always allow you to catch your breath!

In the Engineer's Guild you witness first-hand the evolution of Guild Ball. Bringing a whole new definition to "technical play," the Engineers are not afraid to push the boundaries, using new mechanica to give them the edge on the pitch.

Mastering the Engineers is an exercise in synergy; comfortable on the ball, they are the consummate masters of possession play. Opponents will find themselves held at arms' length; trying to pick their way through Ballista's deadly minefield and Salvo's rain of crossbow bolts just to watch Velocity accelerate away with the precision and power only a machine can achieve.
