Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
Don´t think less of it just because of its colourful nature and mobile-game-like graphics. Buy it. This is a polished, unique and challenging game that has been made with so much love and passion that you can really feel it. Give it a chance and you´ll love it and keep returning to it like I do. And it might make you buy a plane ticket to Borneo to subsequently get lost in the jungle like I did. Fun times.

Nonsensical "battle" system where "diplomacy" is really just a different weapon to beat over the heads of your opponents. Nothing like a little "friendly fire"!
This game has nothing to offer. Gameplay is overly simplistic while simultaneously somewhat obscure. The reasons for doing anything just don't make any sense at all, and no matter how "charming" your explorer may be, I don't see the reason why a pirate, looter, or smuggler would hand over the goods just because you talked him/her into it.
But worst of all - this game is just plain boring. This is the first GOG purchase I have come to regret.
sadly, I don't even get to look at the game since it crashes every time I try to start it.
I'm not the only person with that problem I have seen a few folk complain about it on steam (only place that showed this problem in a google search)
So any time I see a review with SJW anywhere in it, there will be an instant "reverse review" effect. Whatever they put as a review, I will put exactly the opposite. Welcome to my personal battlefield.
