Well, it’s happened.

I’m playing Puzzle Pirates again, and loving it. For those who don’t know, Puzzle Pirates is a massivly multipleyer online game where you create a pirate and do all sorts of fun things. You can join the navy, pillage with a crew, build up your house, own a shop, etc…

What makes this all unique is that everything in the game is accomplished through playing different puzzle games.

Sailing, bilging, gunning, drinking, etc… are all different puzzles.

The nice part of the game is that there are two types of oceans to play on. Subscriber oceans require a monthly subscription, but allow full access to the game. Dubloon oceans allow you to play without a subscription, but require dubloons to access certain things in the game. Dubloons can be purchased with real cash, or with your Pieces of Eight (the games currency).

I highly recommend you give it a shot. It takes care of both my video game and board game itch at once :)

If you do decide to give it a shot you can find me on the Hunter Ocean.  My pirate’s name is Topplebottom.
