A good pirate strategy builder game in my humble opinion, looks like anno got into pirate themed with better graphics, mechanics are rather simple and easy to get and the pirate ship combat it's just enjoyable
Buggy and Lame, Tropico and Anno 100x times better
hello to all, i installed the game and i noticed that my mouse is lagging (impossible to play like this) and i got a nice setup and not the same problem in other games. so for me is a negative note...

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Basically a cheap version of Anno focused around pirates ofc. Could be a good game but I think needs a lot of work on the production chains, UI, artwork, etc. before id be interested in playing for a longer period of time. Would also like to see a better storyline and more diversity in ships that you can build as well as more characters. As of now, I would just go play Anno 1800 if you want a game of this genre.
I would rather recommend this game. But would also likely never play it anymore :D It is really much more about kind of Anno type of game than of Pirates. And it is pretty demanding (for maybe not so experienced player). So it is very possible at certain moment you'll find yourself in need to solve the problem that costs you lots of money and meanwhile likely would loose the game. BUT it is still about pirates, reminding me of Tropico 2 Pirate Cove. And it's somewhat fun in this aspect, although it is kind of more simple in this aspect of game :) So I'd hope to get a different game of this kind in future. I'm just really not a fun of Anno kind type of games.
[h2]Republic of Pirates – Mein innerer Jack Sparrow hat endlich einen Bürojob[/h2] Ich habe [i]Republic of Pirates[/i] gestartet und dachte zuerst: „Cool, bisschen Piraten-Action, Schiffe versenken, Rum trinken, fertig.“ Nach 10 Minuten saß ich allerdings da wie ein gestresster Hafenmanager mit Alkoholproblem und 37 unbezahlten Rechnungen☠️ Und genau deshalb macht das Spiel so verdammt Spaß. [i]Republic of Pirates[/i] ist im Grunde eine wilde Mischung aus Städtebau, Wirtschaftssimulation und Piratenchaos. Du baust deine eigene Piratenrepublik auf, errichtest Produktionsketten, handelst mit Ressourcen und versuchst gleichzeitig, nicht von rivalisierenden Fraktionen zu Kleinholz verarbeitet zu werden. Die ersten Stunden fühlen sich an wie: „Haha, ich bin ein Pirat! 🏴☠️“ 20 Stunden später: „Warum fehlen schon wieder Bretter?! Wer hat den Rum exportiert?!“ Das Spiel sieht dabei überraschend hübsch aus. Die Karibik-Atmosphäre ist richtig gemütlich, das Wasser glänzt schön, die Inseln wirken lebendig und überall laufen diese herrlich faulen Piraten herum, die aussehen, als hätten sie seit drei Wochen keine feste Entscheidung getroffen. Besonders nice fand ich: [list] [*]die Seeschlachten, [*]die entspannte Aufbau-Atmosphäre, [*]die strategischen Produktionsketten, [*]und dass man sich irgendwann wirklich wie der Chef einer chaotischen Piratenfirma fühlt. Natürlich ist nicht alles perfekt. Die KI trifft manchmal Entscheidungen, bei denen selbst betrunkene Möwen sagen würden: [i]„Bruder… schwierig.“[/i] Auch das Micromanagement kann später etwas eskalieren. Irgendwann kontrolliert man gefühlt: [list] [*]12 Inseln, [*]400 Arbeiter, [*]28 Handelsrouten, [*]und einen einzigen Typen namens Gregor, der offenbar ALLE Bretter klaut. Aber genau dieses kontrollierte Chaos macht den Reiz aus. Wer Spiele wie: Anno 1800, Tropico 6 oder Port Royale 4 mag, wird hier wahrscheinlich viele Stunden verlieren. Und zwar freiwillig. Fazit: Republic of Pirates ist wie ein Piratenurlaub, bei dem man plötzlich merkt, dass man eigentlich der Finanzminister einer kriminellen Inselwirtschaft geworden ist. Chaotisch, manchmal stressig, aber extrem motivierend. Jetzt entschuldigt mich bitte — Gregor hat schon wieder die Bretter geklaut.
A somewhat decent timewaster/cozy civilization builder with pirate themed click and attack style combat. Grab it if its cheap/on-sale , otherwise its kinda meh . Heres the downsides Click and travel/attack , no actual player manually controlled sailing or combat Shanties , Short Jumpscare remixes of ya fav assassins creed songs when you click on a ship , I kinda get full length songs wouldnt mesh well with the way the sailing works , but it still sucks not to hear the full song . I like to harmonize with the bobs and vegene inclusive shanties by meowing like a cat pre-fight with another cat. In campaign mode the owner/dev of the game you paid money for prefers that you grind his missions to utilize that commodity thats on your island , no early building on that iron or clay deposit without kissing the popes ring or tazing the hippies. Your probably just here to build a fleet of Man'o'wars to swashbuckle your neighbours stuff into being your stuff right ? Well you cant make all the things you need , some parts like improved cannons can only be rng looted from enemy ships , as well as the size of your fleet is controlled by a max/cap of your captains, I havent built any yet but i believe they are end game/built after its fun to have them. Otherwise its decent tho for a cheap price and will probably give you as many hours gameplay as it did me
Fun pirate themed city builder. I enjoy it.
I don't get the shade for this game. It's Anno lite, but also very fun. Anno can get to be a grind and I find this balance a lot more enjoyable. 7/10
Für unter 10 € eine sehr schöne Kampagne im Anno-Stil mit ca. 20h guter Laune. :)
