A cult title game history finally returns in contemporary garb on the screen back!
My favorite uncle Edward has you in his will bequeathed his entire property - including an old, dilapidated mansion. As the random like, you encounter while rummaging among spinnwebenverhangenen shelves on an old parchment, which is closer to the view as a treasure map turns. Get on the path to the treasures of the legendary pirate island to raise. But be on guard - it could be a journey without return ...
The game principle of "The Pirate Island" is as simple as gripping: digging in with your character through an underground maze and collect the diamonds and gold, which in each of the more than 100 Level scattered. It should, however, for tips in front of the obstacles and traps in eight take their number from one level to slowly but steadily growing. Herabdonnernde boulders are on the former Freibeutereland also on the agenda as glowing lava or locked treasure chests.
The hunt for pirate treasure offers pure fun - and to pay the price!
Who knows you not, the verdicts of the past, many computer games better! " Or "Nowadays, the user gets only behind giant video sequences hidden fun skimmed food!" Does a PC game really 3Dfx graphics and two Renderzwischensequenzen order for a long time on the screen captivate you?
With "The pirate island" proves the German developer and publisher Sunflowers impressively that solely the gameplay the entsheidenden factor in the quality of a game.
The ingenious design of the thinking and Tüftelspaßes brings the small gray cells to glow so that after a few moments, no longer escape from the game. And thanks to the brilliant multi-player mode, in which you either as a couple or as a team against each other, the program provides over a period of months, pleasure and variety at the highest level.
Today is already a classic!
An independent Mafo Institute, "The Pirate Island" of 150 players neutral test, and over 70% of respondents rated the program as "good" or "very good", not a few called the game even in the same breath as legendary classics like Tetris or Boulder Dash, because it caused symptoms similar addiction. So if Solitaire no longer can see and find the perfect game for in between with potential addiction, should not miss this adventure.
