Description
Sea Dogs is an epic role-playing game for the pirate in all of us. Return to the age of sail as a young captain looking to make a name in the world. Develop your character from humble beginnings and rise to control all of the islands for your country or yourself. You can give your allegiance to one of three countries or choose to serve only yourself as a swashbuckling pirate. Build your wealth and reputation and use it to acquire bigger ships and better crewman. Hire other captains to join you in attacking and capturing other ships or forts. Where you go and what you do is up to you. The choices in Sea Dogs are endless, and so is the fun.
  • Play as one of four sides (British, French, Spanish, or Pirate) or change allegiances during the game.
  • Nonlinear campaign allows players to choose quests or play the game any way they want.
  • 20 different ship types to choose from, from small boats to large battleships.
  • Location-specific ship damage allows you to send their sails up in flames, bring the mast crashing to the deck, or shoot holes in the hull.
  • Realistic and dynamic wind and weather effects as well as day and night cycle.

Great old game, occasional glitches

This is a great old game that I played as a child and have rediscovered. The game mechanics are fun and well made for the time, and theres a range of different storylines to choose from with loads of little side quests. The wind mechanics make every battle unique. One small issue is that when you get a big ship (class 3 and up), the quick travel to a town stops working and it regularly drops you in front of a wall, and the boarding mechanic gets awkward as theres a tiny wndow you need to get into to make it work. These are minor problems though and generally its still a lot of fun. There are occasional glitches with characters disappearing, or the HUD becoming unreadable if you try and change the graphics settings. Generally these can be sorted by reloading the game though. This game is basically like the beta of assassins creed black flag, but from 20 years earlier and with better sea battle mechanics where it doesnt just become super monotonous. Would recommend for people who like old RPGs

Buy it, and pray for HD Remake

the original sea dogs! So mutch love and hours spent on this game. Sadly it doesnt run well on modern systems. Needs a HD remake. It is playable, but it spoils the experience. So good game, but just needs some refitting to modern standards. :)

Wish for sequel

While this game isn't all bad, it makes me wish that its sequel Sea Dogs 2 (AKA Pirates of the Caribbean) was available. It felt more like a better upgrade from this game. But even though Akella developed it, both Bethesda and Disney published it to coincide with the first PotC film. So I don't think it'll be possible for GOG to make that game available due to licensing issues

Very slow pace

I have bought this game to study how the pirate/sailing games are made. I must admitt it looks ok and the controlls are nice. Unfortunatelly the games pace is very slow. I have only fought 1 sea battle but it was 1 shot 1 kill. Sailing takes forever. If you are not into old games than stay away from this title.

Far worse than I thought it would be...

I played Pirates back in the early 90s and that was far superior to this game! I'm actually surprised at the good reviews as the play was clunky, unstable and just plain annoying. I like the concept of a free range game where you can head anywhere but I just didn't have the experience I was hoping for. I bought both expansions and while they were improved, still uninstalled and added to my hide list. Good luck if you buy this one!
