User guide
Gameplay
In arcade mode, your objective is to navigate through the levels until you reach the buoy, which marks the end of each level. To achieve this, you'll need to find a path through enemy ships and shoot the switches to open corresponding gates.
In versus mode, you can battle your friends. Both game modes support up to 4 players.
Each boat has two health bars: the top bar represents the hull of the boat, and if it depletes to zero, your ship sinks. The lower bar represents the sail's health; if it reaches zero, your boat will be significantly slowed down.
During the game, attacking enemy ships may cause a sailor to fall overboard. If you pick them up, they can repair either the hull or the sail of your boat.
There are 15 levels in arcade mode and 3 in versus mode.
Selecting the ship
You can choose up to 5 different ships each with different stats POW (attack), DEF (defense), SPD (speed).
Then you must choose the type of gameplay:
- Gameplay-A - You tilt the Nunchuck's joystick in the direction of the boat and it is impossible to go back directly.
- Gameplay-B - (recommend to beginners) direct the ship using the Nunchuck joystick.
Weapons
- Cannonball (the gun from left) - Cannon ball that does damage to the hull of the ship.
- Ball chains (the gun on top): cannonball that does damage to the hull of the ship (if it is empty the bullet damage the hull of the boat)
- Explosive (weapon left) - The barrel will float on the water a few seconds before they explode and damage the hull.
- Ignite arrows (lower arm) - The arrows will put fire and damage the hull and the veiling of the boat.
