"Who wants to be Jack Sparrow?"

Reviewed by: Xavi Iribarren / May 20, 2013

Become a sailing-ship captain with this complete sandbox game

Age of Wind 2 indulges the side of us that would like to go off with Captain Jack Sparrow and look to make our own fortune. In that title, you would take on the role of a budding young pirate, patrolling the Caribbean and plundering how you'd like. You start with your own crew and a smaller vessel, hopefully to achieve success.

You control the course of your vessel tilting your phone or you can choose in 'options' 'Wheel' mode (tap on the screen wheel to change the course of the ship). I find that this game falls about gameplay and controls, as it shows the real difficulty of sailing a ship. Activating the on-screen steering wheel eliminates much of the frustration that comes with trying to turn by tilting, and makes it much easier to end fights without becoming terribly damaged.

The game looks beautiful, as ships and water are rendered quite gracefully. While it might be a bit much to ask for fully-rendered cutscenes, the addition of drawn scenes on parchment does the job well enough. The camera, again, serves to hamper things a little bit by being a bit too angled.

Age of Wind 2 is actually quite playable, and looks to give you a decent playground in which to flex your pirate skills. Controls and camera may take some getting used to, but this game is the closest thing you will have to pirate freedom on your phone.

Developer's original description available here
Get ready for captivating adventures in the sea full of dangers and possibilities. Become a sailing-ship captain! Discover new islands, win nautical battles, trade exotic goods without forgetting about searching for the main treasure.

Notes:
A large fleet cannot be conquered just with powerful weapons - it’s very important to actively maneuver, evading enemy shots.
In order to make an exact shot you have to turn with your side to the opponent and press anywhere on the screen.

During the battle the ship almost always gets damaged. This is the tough truth of life. The damages do not impact the nautical qualities of the ship, but they can lead to the ship’s wreakage. Therefore, you have to watch to make sure the ship is always well-repaired. You can repair the ship in any closest post, not for free, of course.

A good ship costs a lot. You can make enough for it using two means:
You can rob caravans. You can sell the robbed goods at the closest island.
You can engage in peaceful trade. The price for the goods on different islands is quite a lot different. That is why most of the time peaceful trading is quite a lot more profitable than robberies.

You start the game on the easiest ship. The ship has few cannons and a small hold - it is bad for either trade or for war. Fortunately, there is a vast choice of more advanced ships on the island. You can buy them all, if you have a high enough level and enough money for it. When buying a ship pay attention to the ship’s speed, the number of cannons and the hold size.

Besides, you don’t have to buy a new ship, but you can improve the existing ship. There are three options for the improvement:
Cannons - increases the shooting range and the speed of recharge
Armor - decreases the opponent’s chances to damage the ship’s frame.
Sails - increases the speed and agility of the ship

Control:
- To turn the ship - tilt iphone in the right direction.
- To shoot - tap anywhere on the screen.
- To see a map - tap on the compass.

Features include:
- 17 unique ships;
- 21 unique islands;
- 100 unique battles;
- a world full of dangers and adventures;

    Inconvenient navigation. Everything in port is expensive. No economic system at first glance.

    Ship you start with is too weak, cost to repair your ship is too high, you only get 200 for reward after mission, new ships cost far too much after you make port and sell your loot all the money goes to repairs. Uninstalled
