SkullPirates

On the oceans, sailors tell tales of a ship crewed by the dead and flying the black flag of piracy. They say a skeletal army lives within its hold, waiting to assault unwary vessels and steal their treasure. In hushed tones, their name is uttered:

Their captain, Skull Queen, has a fearsome reputation as a cutthroat hunter of the seas. She should; she spent a whole lot on marketing to cultivate that image. She also spent a lot on weapons, cannons, clothes, hats, boots, jewelry, couches, and drapes. But most of all, she spent money on her prized ship, “The Coccyx Avenger”.

In order to support this extravagant lifestyle, the Skull Queen borrowed money from unsavory characters, and now they’ve come to collect. A group of loan sharks, led by the cunning Sharktavia, have The Coccyx Avenger surrounded and are demanding repayment.

There is one way out of Skull Queen’s financial predicament: the nearby isle of Catannia.

Catannia is ruled by a wealthy upper class of feline industrialists. Formerly part of an alliance of neighboring islands, the proud citizens of Catannia recently declared their independence as a sovereign nation. Without the protection of the other islands, the considerable wealth stored in Catannia’s treasury makes it a perfect raiding target.

To save her ship, her career in piracy, and her reputation, Skull Queen must send her crew to infiltrate Catannia, locate its treasury vault, and steal anything that isn’t nailed down. It’s a good thing she has a lot of SkullPirates.

Search for numerous treasures tucked away throughout Catannia’s distinct regions populated by a diverse cast of strange, often silly animal-inspired characters and enemies in search of valuable items to pay off the Skull Queen’s debt. The more valuable treasures you steal, the more you’ll be rewarded with new abilities and open new areas to explore.

As you return gold and treasures to the Skull Queen, you’ll receive new ways to customize your SkullPirate! Major treasures will be rewarded with equipment that expands the abilities of your character, unlockable clothing items that provide passive changes to your SkullPirate’s abilities, including movement speed, attack power, damage resistance and more. Put together matching items to create a full costume and discover additional special effects, or mix and match parts to create your own look!

SkullPirates is even more fun with friends in local cooperative multiplayer!
