What is A pirate quartermaster?

You play a pirate ship’s quartermaster in a single-player management simulation set in a procedurally generated ocean world. You assign crew duties, manage supplies and sickness, and weigh the captain’s wishes against sailors’ rights during turn-based voyages. Battles involve typing cannon orders, with mouse input as an alternative, and fighting hand-to-hand during boarding.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy getting to know and training individual crew members
  • +you like slow voyages interrupted by bursts of combat

Not for you if...

  • −you want unrestricted control as the ship’s captain
  • −you prefer simple systems with few responsibilities to juggle

What players say

75% of 51 reviews are positive

Players praise the crew management and interconnected systems. Combat divides opinion, with some enjoying its unusual mechanics and others finding the typing difficult or too central.
