Pirates. Naval battle

Pirates. Naval battle is a ship combat game in which you destroy pirate ships firing at your vessel. You steer your ship through battles while managing its cannons and avoiding collisions.

Naval battles

When a cannonball hits your ship, you lose one cannon. If your ship has no cannons left, a hit counts as a loss. Colliding with a pirate ship, land or the boundary also counts as a loss. The lifelines of pirate ships appear on the left side of the screen.

You can collect cannons and cannonballs floating on the water to increase your supplies. These items remain on the surface for a limited time.

Ship handling

Your ship has considerable inertia, so it takes time to accelerate, stop and turn. When you change the direction of a turn, the ship first slows its angular velocity to zero before turning the other way. The ship’s speed and angular velocity are displayed on screen.
