Hi, first off I'd like to say I bought the game knowing that all of the reviews I saw for it were negative. I really like the premise of the game, and sokpop games in general, and I'd been looking for a cute pirate trading game like this. How could I resist?
Now, like another review said, the game lacks a menu, a way to save, pause, or even exit. I hesitantly overlooked this, but there's more. The game froze a few times, causing me to have to force close it, and start all over again. Each time I had to start again, there was no way to skip the tutorial, either. Not having a menu/pause button was frustrating because, although the game is easy, sometimes I just cant dedicate my full attention to it, or I'm building new stuff on my islands and i *literally* cant see the rest of the map. And next thing I know, my ship is destroyed and my island got taken over. Another thing is, the tutorial itself doesn't help you if you overlook something. I spent a lot of time figuring out why I couldn't capture islands until I finally noticed a tiny "+" button on one of my boats. Only for my game to freeze afterwards, and yep, start over.

I think this game has an easy way of obtaining replay value, but it was only given like, half of its potential. The spawn, is already randomly generated every time you start the game, but it's kind of a waste when there's no save button and starting a new game is so, so tedious. I could see myself replaying this game only if:
- it actually had a menu
- save files
- pause button
- a way to skip the tutorial
- didn't freeze..?
So sokpop folks, I really hope you out here and read this. Adding some tweaks would really change this game. But if the devs are no longer working on this, I really don't recommend the game.
