       REVIEW


(C) VELSOFT INC.


 Title: PIRATES
 Manufacturer: NICODIM 1995
 Disk version: PRESTIGE
 Memory: 128
 Size: 295 sectors



   A computer version of the board game. You can play alone,
and a computer. There are set parameters
complexity, music off / on, setup.

   All the action takes place on the sea chart. The game
take part in the pirates and Spaniards. The problem of pirates 
seize one of three Spanish ships, secretly carrying gold. A

challenge the Spaniards to deliver such a valuable cargo in a 
certain place.


   All the complexity lies in the fact that the pirates in two 
(!) Times more, and the ships they can go as rowing and with

sail (the first is very useful in the wind). But it is not so
scary. The Spaniards shot one cell further and kill them
will be more difficult. If during a hurricane Your ship will 
have coast and the wind is blowing toward the land, the ship 
does not apply break on the beach.


   The game leaves a good impression.

   Probably everyone remembers hodilki sobiralki-style BOULDER 
DASH and EARTH SHACKER. This game is one of the varieties of 
games this kind, but opens up new directions in these.


   You manage a sort of funny (?) Man in the big hat.
Your shadow chasing one or two similar
pursuer. Your task is to collect
required number of chests of jewels for
key to leave this level through the door. A total of 31 game
level. It is possible to select one of three speeds
movement of the protagonist. Control in the game rather unusual
and at first you will not be easy to get used to it. Still in 
the game there is little subtlety: jumping on the ground (not 
rock) One day, you'll be, but if you jump the second

times, the fall is not applicable. Where? And here is as lucky. 
About other features of the game you will learn by downloading 
it. Good luck!
