Buccaneers  | Place Review
First and foremost, I love pirate games, so when I see a new pirate game on the games page I freak. I have yet to find one that I can continue to play without being annoyed and pestered by bugs and glitches. I believe Buccaneers might just be that game.

When I first got into Buccaneers I knew I was going to be in for experience. I was excited to see what the game had to offer. Upon first loading the game, you get to pick which side you are on, the mischievous pirates, or the loyal Royal Guard. I spent some time playing as both, which gave me a good feel for the game. As a Pirate, you have the opportunity to loot treasure chests and start robberies out on the open seas, while as a Royal Guard you will spend your time stopping the Pirates.

Overall, I really enjoyed the game-play presented in Buccaneers. There are plenty of activities you can do to keep you occupied. Whether you are sneaking up to grab a chest, or sneaking up to handcuff a pirate, you will always be busy doing something in this game. One feature that I particularly like in any game is customization, and this game has no lack of it! I loved being able to customize my pirate ship how I liked to express myself as a pirate.

The building in this game was immaculate. Somebody spent some serious time building this game, and it definitely shows. Every building is built with such high detail one might even question if it was even built with blocks.

One bug that I continued to run into was trying to exit the ship. Every time I tried jumping out of the seat, I would get stuck in the boat. It takes a combination of jumping + crouching to be able to exit, which got quite annoying after awhile.

Overall, I believe Buccaneers has potential to blow up. I think with a few bug fixes, this game will go places.
