"Corsairs: City of Lost Ships" - a new role-playing game from the studio seaward.ru, which tells us about the adventures of a real sea dog in the Caribbean at the end of the seventeenth century. It is worth noting that this project is a kind of continuation of last year’s hit “Corsairs: Return of the Legend.” Did you want a free life on the sea? Did you want to not depend on anyone and rely only on yourself? Did you want to? Then welcome aboard!

The wild life of a free pirate
So, the first thing I want to say is that "City of Lost Ships", this is not just a game, it is a whole life that you have to live in the guise of the main character over several hundred hours of play! Precisely hundreds, because this a virtual reality It really drags on for a long time. We have no doubt that you will be completely imbued with the atmosphere of the game, and it will not let you go until you know all its intricacies. And, by the way, there are a great many of them! Starting from searching for treasures using a map bought from a local resident and saving your own life from mercenaries prowling everywhere, to capturing the Spanish Golden Fleet, the route of which you accidentally learned by overhearing someone else's conversation in one of the taverns of the archipelago.

In addition to those described above, the game has a lot of other side quests: find and sink Pirates' ship in the coastal waters of the colony, help the traders of the archipelago, etc. In addition to all sorts of quests, there are other pleasant little things - such as playing cards or dice. Agree, it’s nice, after the ship has docked in the port, to spend a couple of hours at the gaming table, thereby replenishing or lightening your pocket.

By the way, at the beginning of history you will be sorely short of money and will have to count every piastre. If your financial situation becomes completely worthless, then there is the opportunity to engage in smuggling (albeit, if there is a suitable product in the hold) or go from house to house in search of what is in bad shape. Just be careful, the owners really don’t like it when strangers rummage through their things - they can call the guards, and those who are bolder will kick you in the neck.
The game amazes with its scale from the first minutes: large settlements, huge islands with dense jungles, dungeons, grottoes, beaches, bays... What if you go to a map of the archipelago? The global map represents an actual area of ​​the Earth with a total area of ​​six million square km. Here you have Jamaica, Bermuda and other islands Caribbean Sea, such as Tortuga and Cayman. All of them are divided between four maritime powers - England, France, Spain, Holland - and pirates. In addition, there are uninhabited islands, just waiting for their first guest.

What unusual does the plot have in store for us, you ask? The answer to this question is not so simple - there is simply no plot as such. You are free to choose what to do. Do you want to be a trader? Please go to the nearest store, negotiate with the owner, receive the cargo and go. True, this way of life requires constant monitoring of market prices, which change every now and then. Don't want to trade, want to fight? No questions! Enter the service and work. True, no one will simply issue you a marque patent - first you need to prove your loyalty to this or that state by doing insignificant things. Such, for example, as the delivery of documents from a spy from a foreign island, the destruction of some notorious thug along with his gang, etc. But when the governor understands that you can be trusted, then you will get a full opportunity to serve your power, closely dealing with such important matters as capturing enemy cities, rescuing important people from enemy prisons, etc. Well, those who don’t want to constantly serve someone can go to the pirates.

In general, the game world exists on its own, and the player, that is, you, lives according to the laws of this world. Suppose there is an unwritten rule among captains - no dealings with smugglers. And if you are caught doing an illegal transaction, then rest assured that both the guards and the ships nearby will be hunting for you.
I would like to say a few words about a small bonus kindly created by the developers. We think everyone has heard of Captain Blood. So, now you will have the opportunity to walk in his shoes: having chosen this character at the beginning of the game, you will have to overcome challenges that are inaccessible to others - a sort of mini-campaign.

Seascape
All the splendor described above looks simply incomparable! The redesigned Storm 2.5 engine produces magnificent landscapes. Those who come to the Caribbean for the first time are guaranteed long minutes of admiring the local beauty. Just look at the tropical downpour in the jungles of Trinidad. And the sea! You can stop in the middle of the voyage, lower the sails and admire the water, the glare of the sun, the swimming dolphins, which, when the ship picks up speed, follow it in a trail of water.

The models in the game are just as great. Every person in the city is a plus, and you won't be able to meet two guards with the same faces. The design of the ships deserves special attention. Every rope on the mast, every nail on the deck - everything is honest and in full. We haven't seen this for a long time.
The animation in the game, like everything else, is pleasing to the eye. Here you have combat sketches - strikes, blocks, parries - everything looks very natural. Everything is even more magnificent in the jungle - the trees bending under the onslaught of the storm, and the hummingbirds flying from tree to tree - just sweet! Ships rocking on the waves are a different story. It seems that you are not in front of a monitor, but in the Caribbean.

Sound of the surf
The studio did a great job on the sound design! Almost every action has a sound attached to it. Whether it's just walking through rustling grass or the sound of a sword being unsheathed. Go out to sea, lower the sails and... listen! Do you hear? This is the wind fluttering the flag on the mast. And now? This is your frigate creaking, rocking on the waves! Storm in the game is simply a celebration of sound! - and the impact of water against the side of the ship, and the sails, ready to literally tear off the spar. And if you happen to experience a real naval battle, it will be unforgettable! Fire a broadside shot at an enemy ship and you will hear the screams of dying sailors. If you hit the ship well with bombs, you can hear the hull breaking and the sails tearing. The sound conveys the atmosphere so well that you literally plunge headlong into the battle.
The music in the game is chosen very well. If you enter the port of any country, you will hear the sonorous rhythms of city life, evoking calm and serenity. However, as soon as you go through the reefs and get into the roadstead in Bermuda, something insidiously intriguing will immediately be heard. During a normal sea voyage, a peaceful, relaxing melody plays... but as soon as a ship appears on the horizon under the flag of the Jolly Roger, marches are immediately heard, hinting that a fight cannot be avoided.

***
"City of Lost Ships" is a project that all developers of games about sea romance, without exception, will look up to. A project that comes close to the standard in all aspects - from gameplay, sound effects and ending with graphic design. This is the game that you want to return to again and again, plunging into Magic world hectic life of the Caribbean in the 17th century.

Pirate storyline

Sail to Bermuda. There, contact Jackman with a job offer. Jackman will say that at the moment he has no orders, but Captain Goodley, who is currently in Puerto Principe, Cuba, needs help, and will offer to meet with him and discuss the details.

Go to Cuba in Puerto Principe and find Captain Goodley in the tavern. When talking with him, it turns out that you need to take a guy named John Bolton, who is waiting in the port of Puerto Principe, to Port Royal in Jamaica to Henry Morgan. Agree, saying that serving with him is an honor for you. Go to the port of Puerto Principe and meet John Bolton there, take him on board and head to Jamaica.

In Port Royal, Jamaica, escort John Bolton to Morgan's house (Morgan's house with columns is on the left side of the city when coming from the port). On the way to the house you are stopped by English soldiers. The soldier's commander says that accusations of connections with pirates have been brought against you and John Bolton. You are sent to prison until the circumstances are clarified. However, you are freed by Morgan himself, who says that he paid a ransom for you and is waiting at his residence, after which he leaves.

At the residence, Morgan instructs Edward Lowe, who lives somewhere in Martinique, to deliver the black mark. Travel to Martinique at Le Francois. Upon arrival, ask the innkeeper about Edward Lowe. It turns out that the owner of the tavern knows Lowe and he lives not far from the tavern. Exit the tavern and go right to the house covered with boards, where Lowe lives. Go into the house and when talking to Edward, give him the black mark. Lowe will say that all problems with Morgan have already been resolved and will ask to return the black mark back to Henry Morgan. Go back to Jamaica and Morgan.

After listening to the story, Morgan becomes furious and says that Lowe deceived you. To rectify the situation, Morgan instructs you to find and deal with Lowe personally without any black marks. So quickly return to Le Francois and go to Edward Lowe's house. However, he had already left the house in an unknown direction. Go to the tavern owner and ask him about Lowe. The owner will confirm that Edward recently left the settlement, leaving his things for safekeeping, but the tavern owner does not know where he could have gone. Go to the store and ask about Lowe's. The merchant says that Edward came and was interested in a place where he could buy a ship, but his business as a merchant is to trade goods, not ships that are sold at the shipyard. There is no shipyard in Le François; the nearest shipyard is in Fort-de-France. Either go there on foot across the island, or by boat, dock at the port of Fort-de-France.

First, go to the shipyard and ask the owner if Lowe has stopped by. It turns out that Lowe actually came in and wanted to buy a ship (a brig), but he didn’t have the money for such a ship and Edward went to the moneylender. Since then, the shipyard owner has not seen Lowe again.

Head to the loan shark. He will say that Edward Lowe really came in and tried to borrow money, but the moneylender immediately saw swindlers and deceivers, and therefore did not give the loan to Lowe. Where Edward Lowe went next, he doesn't know.

From the moneylender, head to the port office. Ask a question about Edward Lowe to the head of the department. He asks: for what purpose are you interested in Edward Lowe? Answer that Lowe is your close friend and you must inform him about his mother’s serious illness, but you just can’t catch up with Edward. The head of the port department falls for this trick and says that Lowe boarded a passing ship that went to Bermuda.

In the Bermuda settlement, head to the tavern, where the owner says that Lowe was here and was interested in the local shipyard. Go to the shipyard to see Master Alexus. When asked by the master about who you are with Low, answer that you want to catch up with him in order to settle scores with him. The master begins to complain that the swindler Lowe forged Jackman's signature, and he (Alexus) gave Lowe a ship - the brig "Sea Wolf" with unique characteristics, which was built by order of Jackman. Go to Jackman. He is in a state of quiet rage at what happened and asks only one thing: when we kill Lowe, to give him greetings from Jackman. But where Lowe went on the stolen brig is unknown.

Ask people in taverns around the archipelago about rumors until someone tells you that attacks on mail ships have become more frequent in the area of ​​Cumana, which is located on Maine. Head to Kumana. If the ship is more powerful than class 6, then it must be parked at the Kumane port office and any ship of class 6 must be purchased at the shipyard. Then, on this ship, go out to sea and sail to the Trinidad and Tobago region. There you will meet Lowe in the brig. Board the brig and talk to Lowe, who says that Morgan’s power will soon change. Kill him. Go to Morgan with a report on the work completed.

Morgan proposes to carry out an operation, the result of which will eclipse all of Sharpe's affairs. Namely, Morgan proposed to rob pearl fishers who would collect pearls on tartans for a month on Turks Island in North Bay. Morgan offered to deliver at least 1,000 small and 500 large pearls. Profit - in half.

Make your way to North Bay of Turks Island. There, pearl fishers are already fishing on tartans under pirate flags. When they see you, they run away in all directions. You need to catch up with them and match each tartan side by side, then the pearls will be automatically reloaded into your inventory. Collect the required amount and return to Port Royal to Morgan, where you will hand over half of the loot.

At the exit from Morgan's residence, Captain Goodley meets you and offers you to work as a bounty hunter for a good reward. The target is John Avory, who was last seen in Willemstad (Kyurosau Island). Go there and go to the moneylender. The pawnbroker confirms that John Avory was here recently, but is no longer in town. He heard that John was going to Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago. Go there. There, contact the moneylender. A Port-of-Spain moneylender says that Avory did work for him in the city, but after completing it he left the city and went to the Spaniards on Main in the city of Maracaibo. The moneylender of Maracaibo confirms that John was in the city, but according to rumors he overheard in the brothel, Avory went to the French in the city of Port-au-Prince, in Hispaniola. In Port-au-Prince, first go to the tavern. The tavern owner says that John was here a couple of days ago and killed the sharper. You need to visit the moneylender. The moneylender will tell you that Avory did some work for him. But where John went next is anyone's guess. Although the moneylender has an assumption that John could go to Willemstad, because... a moneylender was recently robbed there. The moneylender of Willemstad is still worried about what happened, but this is not surprising, because an unknown person stole 50,000 piastres from him. He hired John Avory to find the robber. The moneylender will also promise to pay you 5,000 piastres if you bring the gold to the moneylender first. John Avory himself headed to Bermuda. The tavern owner in Bermuda confirms that John Avory is now on the island, or rather in the house of Orry Bruce, apparently a robber of a moneylender. The house is located next to the tavern, go there. In the house you will meet John Avory and Orry Bruce, sorting things out. Tell them that you have an order for both of them, then kill them and take valuables from the corpses, and also take 50,000 piastres from Orry Bruce. You can return to the moneylender for your reward and report to Captain Goodley about the completed order.

Give the money to the moneylender of Willemstad, he will pay you 5,000 piastres in return. You will find Captain Goodley in the Port Royal tavern and receive a reward from him, also tell him that you will now go to report to Morgan about your successes, to which Goodley only grins. Go to Morgan's residence.

Having heard the story, Morgan says that John Avory was his confidant and you finished him off. You explain that this was an order from Captain Goodley. Morgan immediately calls the captain to sort out the situation. Goodley, who came, says that he did not give you any orders. To understand what happened, Morgan appoints a duel between you and Captain Goodley. Kill Goodley. Morgan says you have proven your innocence in this case.

Henry Morgan will ask you to go to Jackman in Bermuda and tell him about Goodley's death.

Seeing you, Jackman is very surprised and says that you allegedly captured his captain Sid Bonnet and gave him to be torn to pieces by the Spaniards. We'll have to look into this. Jackman directs you to Cozumel Bay, on Main, where John Leeds dropped anchor on the frigate Antwerp, with whom you need to talk. Head to Cozumel Bay.

John Leeds meets you there on his frigate. Launch the boats and board his ship. After a conversation with Leeds, it turns out that the crew and captain of the corvette sunk by Leeds landed in Cozumel Bay. By the way, the captain of the corvette is very similar to you and, accordingly, all the sins of this captain are blamed on you. Therefore, you need to deal with your double. Land in the bay, where you destroy part of the crew of the sunken corvette, but the captain is not among them. Go to the next location from the bay and meet a captain there who really looks like you. The double says that he will tell everything if he and the team are released from the encirclement and allowed to leave quietly. Kill him and the rest of his team.

Then return to the ship and head to Bermuda to Jackman. Jackman, after listening to the story, sends you to Morgan with a report on what happened. Report the situation to Morgan.

Morgan will send you to catch up with the pirate Steve Linnaeus, whom he sent to La Vega, on Hispaniola, to find out a series of oddities that have been happening lately in the Brotherhood of the Coast. Go to La Vega.

Upon arrival, contact the tavern owner for help. He says he hasn't seen Steve Linnaeus for a while, but his buddy has just gone to sea. We need to intercept him. Go out to sea and catch up with your friend Linnaeus, who really didn’t have time to go far, and climb aboard. When talking with Steve's friend, a strange story emerges. According to him, Steve recently left with two strangers in an unknown direction and disappeared. And his schooner “Swallow” is apparently being sold at the Santo Domingo shipyard. Linnaeus, according to a friend, would never have sold his ship of his own free will. Therefore, Linnaeus’s friend weighed anchor and went to sea, so that Linnaeus’ story would not be repeated with him. In any case, you need to check out the Santo Domingo shipyard.

The owner of the Santo Domingo shipyard said that the deal for the sale of “Swallow” was the most successful, because it was given to him for next to nothing. Under some pressure, the owner also says that he bought the “Swallow” from a guy who did not introduce himself, but the shipyard owner’s servant saw him go to sea on the frigate “Leon”. According to the shipyard owner, the frigate should still sail in the waters of Hispaniola. Go out to sea global map, there you will see a ship with purple sails - this is the frigate “Leon”, board it.

The captain of "Leon" invites you to go over to the side of HIS admiral. This is Richard Sawkins. He also says that their brotherhood needs people like you, and Henry Morgan himself nominated himself for the post of admiral of the Coastal Brotherhood and no one elected him. In addition, the captain of the Leon reports that Steve Linnaeus is already resting at the bottom of the sea. Refuse the captain's offer and kill him. Head to Morgan.

After the report, Morgan directs you to Puerto Principe, where, according to rumors, Richard Sawkins is planning some kind of operation against the Spaniards that needs to be thwarted. This will damage Sawkins' reputation among the pirates.

In Puerto Principe, go to the tavern and ask the tavern owner about the operation. He will answer that something is really being planned now, but Soukins keeps all the details in the strictest confidence even from those close to him and sits at home almost all the time. You need to get into Richard Sawkins' house and steal documents. Go to Sawkins' house, grab the papers from the table and run away from the settlement. Because everyone becomes an enemy. Sawkins's papers set out the plan for the upcoming operation against the Spaniards. Sawkins learned that the Spaniards had started transporting the largest consignment of precious stones from Panama. To carry out this operation, the Spaniards abandoned the land delivery of jewelry from Panama to Porto Bello and sailing in the Caribbean Sea. Just one battleship must round Cape Horn, rise to the fortieth parallel, then turn right and reach Lisbon in a straight line.

Sawkins assembles a squadron and plans to meet the Spaniard in two weeks at San Martin. We need to get ahead of them and intercept this ship below San Martin, sink it or board it. Go out to sea and sail to San Martin.

Two weeks later, a ship with purple sails appears near San Martin - this is your goal. Board the ship. In the chest in the captain's cabin you will find a large number of precious stones. That's it, the mission is completed, you can report to Morgan.

Morgan will ask about the details of the operation, but avoid answering and say that there was nothing particularly interesting on the ship.

Morgan will invite us to take a trip to Panama. Morgan's plan is to take Porto Bello and reach Panama by land, because... The Spaniards will definitely not wait for this. Morgan suggests taking a more powerful ship (if the squadron consists of more than one ship, then the rest must be placed in the port department) and gives 20 days for preparation. During these days, hire people, buy food, medicine, weapons, cannonballs, bombs, gunpowder and return back to Morgan by the agreed date.

It turns out that by this time Morgan had already assembled a squadron of 5 powerful 1st class ships. He gives you the task of performing and immediately taking Porto Bello. Move towards Porto Bello, attack the fort and capture the city. Go to the governor's house and talk to the governor. The governor turns out to be already aware of the plan to march on Panama and was ready for your attack on his city and therefore was very surprised that you took the city so quickly. In addition, he said that you will die in the jungle on the way to Panama. Tell this news to Morgan who comes up. He believes that Richard Sawkins was able to secretly warn the Spaniards about the plan to march on Panama. Morgan is not going to give up the trip and suggests splitting up. You will command the second squad, which will include Soukins. You are instructed to land in the Gulf of Darien within two days and go to Panama. On the way to Panama, you need to quietly shoot Soukins, because... Morgan does not want to see him at the city walls.

Set out to sea and reach the Gulf of Darien. Disembark there. Sawkins will approach you and say that he is ready for the upcoming operation.

On the way to Panama, your squad will be attacked three times by the Spaniards and the local population.

The last battle will be at the walls of Panama. Morgan comes up and gives the task to find the governor of Panama, because... The Spaniards' forces were exhausted by ambushes in the jungle, and there was no one left in the city.

Go to the house of the governor of Panama, find him in the next room and interrogate him. According to him, the gold of Escorial is in a locked chest in the same room, but the key is in the possession of the commandant of Panama, who participated in the defense of the city and most likely died. We need to find the key. When leaving the governor's house you will meet Morgan. He gives the order to find the key, and he goes to interrogate the governor.

Go to Panama Fort. There in prison on the commandant's table lies the right key, take it and return to the governor's house. Open the chest - the gold of Escorial lies there (50,000,000 piastres). At this moment, Morgan comes up and takes the gold, saying that now he will collect gold from all the sailors, and in the evening he will divide it, according to the laws of the Coastal Brotherhood. He also says that the governor could not stand the torture and died, however, he managed to talk about another chest, which is located on the outside of the fort. Morgan sends you there to check these words. Go to the fort. In front of the fort there is a narrow path that goes around it from the outside. Follow it, at the end of the path there is indeed a chest, but there is nothing valuable in it. Return to the city.

At the entrance to the city, a sailor meets you and says that Morgan collected gold from everyone, loaded it onto a galleon standing in the port, and secretly left Panama in an unknown direction. The sailors refuse to go back with you and continue to plunder the city, so you will return to the ship alone.

On the way to the Gulf of Darien, you will be attacked by the Spaniards again, but you don’t have to engage them in battle, you can run around them.

Board the ship and head to Port Royal, to Morgan's residence. Morgan's secretary says that Morgan himself is in London and will arrive only in a year. Return a year later to Morgan and demand your share of the spoils. However, Morgan says that the Coastal Brotherhood has come to an end, he himself is now a planter, and he bought his forgiveness and forgiveness for other surviving pirates from the English crown for the gold of Escorial. The end of the pirate storyline.

Main quest

To get started main quest games - quest games City of Lost Ships, you must first complete the so-called quest about killing beggars. It is taken in the main city of the country of which the hero is a citizen. (for example, for Jan Spain it is Willemstad).

Oliver Trust will stop you on the street and offer you, for a reward of 1,000,000 piastres, to kill all the beggars on the archipelago. You can either agree or refuse the offer; this will have little effect on the further outcome. Now you should look for beggars (a man in rags, usually sitting on the ground, can move around the city) in cities, and talk to them, find out why they are being hunted. You need to interview at least three beggars. One of them will send you to a tramp who lives on one of the islands of the archipelago. If he is not in the city, spend the night in a tavern, he will soon be found. The tramp suggests that the Governor-General of Curaçao, Peter Stavesant, himself is involved in this case. Head to Curacao, to the Willemstad colony.

Enter the residence and go into the room (the door opposite the entrance), go to the chest near the round table. The chest is locked, but you don't have the key. Leave the residence and go to the tavern. Ask the owner about the key keeper, the tavern keeper will tell you to contact the key maker, Hill Corner, who sits at a table near the counter. The key master will agree to make a copy of the key from the chest in the residence for a decent amount of money, agree to his offer, and wait 2 nights in the tavern. After that, go to the house to the key holder. Go into the house. An officer and 2 soldiers will come, kill them and go up to the second floor and take the key from the table. Now go to the residence to the chest. When the soldier turns away, open the chest and take all its contents, the letter (Stuvesant's correspondence with the Dutch West India Trading Company) and the treasure. Return to the beggar.

It turns out that Teaser Dan actually visited the Island of Justice. You, again, need to go back to Willemstad, to Stavesant and talk to him. Moor in the sweat of Willemstad, go to the tavern and ask the tavern owner about Teaser, where Den disappeared, the owner of the tavern does not know, also, he will advise you not to interfere in the affairs of the governor general and the Dutch West India Company. Now go to the residence and start a dialogue with Stavesont. But as soon as you mention Teaser’s name, the governor will become sharply wary. Say you’re writing a book, but you won’t be able to really learn anything. We need to find a representative of the Dutch West India Company in the archipelago.

Get to the nearest pirate colony. Having reached the nearest diplomat, ask him about the representative, but the diplomat refuses to name the location of the representative of the Dutch Trading Company. Give the agent the name Oliver Trust, and he says that the customer can be found in San Martin. Sail to this island.

Having moored in one of the bays of San Martin, make your way to Marigot and go to Oliver’s house, which is located just opposite the local moneylender. After a short dialogue, kill Thrust, search the corpse and take the letter from the table. From the letter you will learn the location of that very mythical Island of Justice, which turns out to be by no means mythical. Return to the ship and sail to the beggar you know.

The tramp will give you the key of Diffindur, which will be useful later.

Before heading to the city of lost ships, leave your ship at the port office and change to tartan. Give the money to the moneylender for safekeeping. Place the officers on the boats and also leave them with the port master. Since you will lose everything upon entering the City.

Swim to the upper left corner of the map. You will go out to the open sea. After the command “swim”, a video will play, and then the hero finds himself in the City. The sea is raging, a wild storm. A local resident named George Stokes approaches you and says that he saw the death of your ship. You are the only one who survived. He will bring you up to speed a little. The city consists of many wrecked ships connected in an incomprehensible way. You are on the Velasco galleon, which is home to one of the established crime clans - the narwhals. On the barque "San Gabriel" there is a second clan - the Caspers. Neither one nor the other spares anyone who dares to disturb them. Stokes will also say that before the storm ends, you need to visit the head of this God-forsaken place - Admiral Chad Capper, at the San Augustine warship. As it turned out, this is the same missing privateer who went out for a prize three years ago and disappeared without a trace. And now he is an admiral and the head of the City.

Turn around and jump into the water. You need the flute "Fernando Diffindur", on which is the very chest that opens with Diffindur's key. The ship has a rift approximately in the middle. Having found the ship, swim around it and go into the gap. The chest is on the right. Put all your things there and calmly go to the admiral.

You will be officially declared a “citizen of the City.” The City has almost everything that is typical of an ordinary port: a tavern, a store, a church, a money lender. The moneylender is a special story. Everyone will tell you that he is terrible, scary man, Warlock. The debtor will be obliged to return to him an amount five times greater than this. It turns out that Brahms gave his soul to Miclantlecutli, the Aztec god of the dead. If the debt is not repaid, after some time, when moving to any location, you will be transported to the sacrificial temple, to Tenochtitlan. God will appear to you and demand your money back. If you don't have them, you won't get out of there. This will happen even after you get out of the City.

Now go to the Fleron caravel, to the tavern owner Hill Brunner and ask him about Teaser Dan (that same missing beggar). Everyone thinks he drowned. Hill asks you to remain silent about the fact that Teaser managed to get to the mainland, because the admiral must under no circumstances find out about it. The law of the City states that no one is allowed to build rafts or boats to sail away. Hill will ask you to visit him later, he must consider the information received.

After a while, return to Hill. He will make an appointment for you after twelve o'clock at night in his wine cellar (this is one of the cabins on the same ship, you need to go out onto the deck and go to the stern of the ship). After the conversation, you will need to visit the Fernando Diffindur flute, where Teaser often sailed. Hill needs proof that you are right.

Now your task is to find Andre Labor, a carpenter, in the city. According to Brunner, it was he who helped Dan build the floating craft. Labor makes an appointment for you in the cabin of the corvette Protector. The carpenter betrays you. He brings a policeman with him. Kill them. Tell Hill what happened. He proposes to cover up the traces of the crime and frame one of the clans, namely the “narwhals”. To do this, you need to waylay one of the “narwhals” in the bow of their base (the Velasco galleon), take the clan amulet from him and take it to the admiral, and thus remove suspicions of murder from you. After completing this, you will be tasked with destroying all the "narwhals". Officers will be given to help. After killing everyone, go to the barrels opposite the entrance. Between them lies an ordinary key for chests. Report to the admiral about the successfully completed task. Now go back to Hill Brunner and tell him what happened. He will ask you to come see him later. Spend the night at the tavern for a few days, then go to Hill. He says that today at midnight in the tavern there will be a meeting between Capper and a certain person. You must eavesdrop on the conversation while hiding behind a column in the wine cellar (stand sideways and don't move or you will be discovered). The information turned out to be really very important. It turned out that Kapper and the leader of the “Kasperov” clan (and it was he) were in the same bundle. It turns out that you are not the admiral, but he has you wrapped around his finger. With your hands you destroyed the “narwhals”. In addition, they mentioned a certain Mechanic. Report everything to Brunner. He will express his thoughts on this matter and try to remember who already lived here before him. This is necessary in order to find out who this Mechanic is.

You won't learn anything more from Hill. After some time he is killed. Tavern waitress Armo Dulin will tell you that she found Brunner's corpse in the wine cellar, and noted that before his death he asked her questions about the man who lived here before him.

Go to the admiral. He will tell you not to get involved in this matter. Try to find the oldest residents of the City. One of them is Cecile Galard, who lives in the Eva galleon. When you go to her, you will see three “caspers” trying to kill the unfortunate woman. Kill them and receive information about the Mechanic as gratitude (if you fail to save the elderly lady, Aurélie Bertin will tell you everything). His name is Henrik Wedeker, and it was he who came up with the way to anchor the City's ships. It seems that the admiral isolated him on the barque San Gabriel, the base of the Casper clan. You need to get to him. You will have to destroy the entire clan alone.

Talk to Henrik. It turns out that the City is supported by only three ship skeletons and can be destroyed by any storm. Luckily, he has a ship to get him out of here. But: firstly, he will sell it to you, and only for one and a half million, and secondly, the ship still needs to be freed from the wreckage. But this can only be done with the help of a gear that Henrik dropped into the water. Your task is to go underwater in a special suit (this can only be done from 10.00 to 19.00) and get the gear. The air supply in the suit is only six minutes, and terrible voracious creatures have appeared under the City.

The suit hangs on the wall inside the Phoenix platform. He puts on (and takes off) automatically, you just need to approach him.

Go underwater. The location of the gear is randomly generated. You will have to fight huge crabs. You can only fight with a saber. You won't be able to run either, and you only have six minutes.

Having found the gear, return back to the Mechanic. The corvette must be provided with all the necessary goods for sailing. These are cannonballs, buckshot, nipples, bombs, canvas, medicines, boards, provisions, gunpowder and weapons. Go to the tavern waitress Armo Dulin. So, shells for guns can be obtained from housewives. These are Lea Toors, Aurelie Bertin, Alice Taylor and Elisa Calvo. Eliza will need a lute, 10 bunches of grapes and 3 bottles of wine, Leah - 10 bags of salt. Provisions, boards and canvas can be purchased from the store owner. Padre Angel will give you the medicine. For gunpowder and weapons, you need to contact policeman John Workman. He will help with the condition: take him with you.

It remains to recruit a team of at least 15 people. After finishing the set, go to the Mechanic, the storm has already begun. But Capper arrested him. We need to help out the scientist.

Go to the residence. There is no mechanic here. He is in prison on Tartarus. Run there as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to free Wedeker - he is in a cage, and there is no time to look for the key. The mechanic will send you to the second mast of the Fernando Diffindur flute, to the very place where Teaser Dan hid his chest.

Having reached the indicated place, use the “open” icon to go out into the open sea. The quest is completed.

to be continued...

Here there will be a walkthrough of the City of Lost Ships itself.
How to get into it and everything connected with it will be described here!

Also in this topic you can ask any question related to the passage of the City of Lost Ships.

Kill all the beggars - an introductory quest to the Civil Procedure Code.

Spoiler

To receive the quest, go to the city where you originally appeared (depending on the chosen nation). There we walk along the street until a man approaches us with a proposal to kill all the beggars. Here it’s up to you to agree or refuse.
Now you need to interview several beggars about this. We sail around the islands, interview beggars. One of them (after you interview several other beggars) will send us to a certain beggar (this is all a matter of randomness). Beggars take to the streets at certain times.
This beggar suggests that the Governor General of Holland, Peter Stavesent, is behind all this.
Now we are heading for Curacao. Upon arrival, we go to the residence, to one of the rooms. There we find a locked chest. We don't have the key. We go to the tavern and ask the tavernkeeper about the key keeper and he points us to Master Key Keeper Hill Koner. He will agree to make a copy of the key to the chest in the residence for a decent amount of money, we agree to his offer, and wait 2 nights in the tavern. Afterwards we go to his house for the key. We go in, but there will be a trap for us. Corner reported us to the governor. We kill soldiers. We go to the 2nd floor and take the duplicate. Now we go to the residence, to that same chest.
When the soldier turns away, we search the chest and take everything from there.
Now we are sailing to the beggar who led us to Stavesent.
After talking with him, we sail to Vilemstad again.
Upon arrival, we go to the tavern and ask the tavern owner about Teazer Denve, where he disappeared, the owner of the tavern will say that he does not know, and he will also advise not to interfere in the affairs of the governor general and the Dutch West India Company.
Now we go to the residence and talk to Stavesent about this. He doesn't really tell us anything.
Well now we need to find a representative of the Dutch trading East India Company on the Archipelago.
Now we sail to any pirate port and go to the tavern, to the diplomat. We ask him about the representative, but the diplomat refuses to name the location of the representative of the Dutch Trading Company. If we have dealt with him before, then we should know his name and tell him.
Agent name Oliver Trust (He gives us the task of killing beggars)
After we give the name, we will be told that the Trust is located in Marigot (San Martin). That's where we're sailing.
Upon arrival, we find Trust’s house and go into his house. After a short conversation, we kill Oliver, search the corpse, and take the letter from his table.

Now we sail back to the tramp, tell him everything and get a key that will be useful to us in the future.

Well, now, according to the coordinates written in the Trust’s letter, we set out in search of the City of Lost Ships.

GPK line

Spoiler

After completing the “Kill all Beggars” Quest, we learn the approximate location of the City of Lost Ships. Namely - north of Cape Catoche, on the mainland, and west of the city of Havana, on the island of Cuba

Attention: Before leaving for the island, it is better to leave your ship at the port office, and change to a cheap one (because your ship will be destroyed by the storm). Also, we will lose all the officers and all the money. It is better to hand over the money to the moneylender, and place the officers on ships and leave them in the port department.
Things will also be taken away from you, but they can be hidden if you completed the introductory quest “kill all beggars.” Upon completion, you are given a key. They can open a chest in the City and put things there before going to the “Admiral”.

We sail to the approximate location of the island (north of Cape Catoche, on the mainland, and west of the city of Havana, on the island of Cuba). There we go out into the open sea and select the “swim to” function, in it we select the Cities of Lost Ships (North, South - it doesn’t matter).
After the crash, local resident George Stokes comes up to you and says that he saw the death of our ship. It looks like you are the only one who survived. He will tell you about the city. The city consists of many wrecked ships connected in an incomprehensible way. You are on the Velasco galleon, which is home to one of the bandit clans - narwhals. On the barque "San Gabriel" there is a second clan - the Caspers. Neither one nor the other spares anyone who dares to disturb them. Stokes will also say that you need to report to the head of the city, Admiral Chad Capper, at the San Augustine warship before the storm ends. As it turned out, this is the same missing privateer who went out for a prize three years ago and disappeared without a trace. And now he is an admiral and the head of the City. If you don't visit it yourself, Capper will come himself.
Now you need to hide things in the chest on the Fernando Diffindur flute. The ship has a rift approximately in the middle. Having found the ship, we swim around it and go into the gap. The chest is on the right. We put all our things there (and Gold too) and go to the admiral.
We talk to him. After the conversation we became citizens of the city. Now let's take our things.
Now we can better explore our place of stay. The City has: a tavern, a shop, a church, a money lender... He's a dangerous guy, by the way.

Now we go to the owner of the tavern (She is on the caravel "Fleron") Hill Brunner and ask him about Teaser Dan.
It turns out that everyone here believes that he drowned... Hill asks us not to spread the word that Teaser managed to get to the mainland, because the admiral must under no circumstances find out about it. The law of the City states that no one is allowed to build rafts or boats to sail away.
Hill will ask us to visit him later, he must consider the information received. We should walk around the City, meet the locals...

After some time we return to the tavernkeeper. He makes an appointment for us after midnight in his wine cellar (this is one of the cabins on the same ship, you need to go out onto the deck and go to the stern of the ship). After the conversation, we go to the flute “Fernando Diffindur”, where Teaser often sailed. Hill needs proof that we are right (We need to bring him Teaser's notes).
Now we need to find the carpenter Andre Labor in the city. According to Brunner, it was he who helped Dan build the floating craft. Labor makes an appointment for us in the cabin of the corvette Protector. An ambush awaits us there. We'll have to kill everyone. Now we go to the tavernkeeper and tell him about what happened. He offers to substitute one of the clans, the Narwhals, since they are weaker than the Caspers. To do this, you need to waylay one of the narwhals in the bow of the Velasco galleon. Kill him and take the Narwhal Clan Medallion from him. We take the medallion to the admiral, thereby removing suspicion from ourselves. The admiral instructs us to destroy the narwhals and gives us 3 people to help. We go to the Velasco galleon and kill all the narwhals. After dealing with the narwhals, we go to the admiral. We tell the admiral about everything.
Now we go to Hill Brunner and tell him about what happened. He asks to come see him later, he needs to find out something...
After a few days (you can spend the night in a tavern for a few days), we approach Hill and talk to him.
Hill says there will be a meeting between Chad Capper and a certain person at the tavern tonight at midnight. We must eavesdrop on the conversation, hiding behind a column in the wine cellar (you need to stand sideways to the column and not move, otherwise you will be discovered).
It turned out that Capper met with the head of the Caspers and that they had been cooperating for a long time. It turns out that the destruction of the narwhal clan will only benefit them. They also mentioned a certain Mechanic...
We go to Hill and tell him everything. Hill says he'll think about who lived here before him.
Hill Bruner is soon killed. Tavern waitress Armo Dulin told us that she found Brunner's body in the wine cellar, and added that before his death, he asked her questions about the man who lived here before him.
Apparently, some people really didn’t like that Hill was digging in this direction...
We should find out from the “admiral” what measures are being taken regarding Bruner’s murder. Also, now we ourselves must find the oldest resident of the city and find out from him about the mechanic.
Let's go to the admiral. He tells us not to get involved in this matter...
Now we are looking for the oldest resident of the City. One of them is Cecile Galard, who lives in the Eva galleon. When we go to her, we will come across three “caspers” trying to kill her. We kill them and receive information about Mechanics as gratitude (if they kill her, Aurélie Bertin will tell everything).
His name is Henrik Wedeker, it was he who came up with a way to attach the City's ships. Apparently the admiral isolated him on the barque San Gabriel, at the base of the Casper clan. You need to get to him. We will have to chop up the entire clan alone. It will be quite difficult...
After we kill everyone, we go into its depths, there we will meet that same mechanic!
It turns out that the City is supported by only three ship skeletons and can be destroyed by any storm. Luckily, he has a ship to get him out of here. But: firstly, he will sell it to us, and only for one and a half million, and secondly, the ship still needs to be freed from the wreckage. But this can only be done with the help of a gear that Henrik dropped into the water.
Let's go to the phoenix platform, the suit is inside! We put it on and go under the water! The gear appears randomly!
When we find it, we get up and give it to Henrik!
It's not safe to stay in the City. The sooner we get out of here, the better. The corvette must be provided with all the necessary goods for sailing. These are cannonballs, buckshot, nipples, bombs, canvas, medicines, boards, provisions, gunpowder and weapons.
shells for guns can be obtained from housewives. These are Lea Toors, Aurelie Bertin, Alice Taylor and Elisa Calvo. Eliza will need a lute, 10 bunches of grapes and 3 bottles of wine, Leah will need 10 bags of salt. Provisions, boards and canvas can be purchased from the store owner. The grateful Father Angel will give you the medicine. For gunpowder and weapons, you need to contact policeman John Workman. He will help with the condition: take him with you.
It remains to recruit a team of at least 15 people. Having finished the set, we hurry to the Mechanic!
Upon arrival, we understand that Capper has arrested the Mechanic!
Let's hurry to Tartarus!
It’s a pity that Henrik won’t be freed! We sail to Santo Diffindur, go out into the open sea, that's it, the line is over!

Toy Corsairs: GPK will probably never go out of style. Exciting sea and coastal battles, even now, several years after the release of the thing, look fantastic. Therefore, we bring to your attention two variations at once: video and text.

Watch the video walkthrough of the game Corsairs

Dying Lord's Estate

The story begins back in 1665, on January 1st. Main character The game learns from his faithful servant that the Honorable Lord Gildoy is seriously wounded. Next you need to go into the house. Andrew James, the Lord's servant, will stand on the threshold. In his company main character rises to the top floor. The dying Lord lies in bed. A servant approaches and brings the necessary potions and tools needed to save the Lord's life.

Later, Peter Blood appears in his office. Suddenly Jeremy's servant appears and declares that the Royal Dragoons are rushing here at full speed. This news is sad. Jeremy advises taking a sword from the balcony for self-defense. Which should be done immediately. The main character takes the keys from the table. Then you need to go up to the second floor, there is a chest on the balcony.

Having opened the old chest with the key, we take all its contents. Now the main character is armed to the teeth. Jeremy reappears and says that the Royal Dragoons are very close. A moment later, Captain Gobart enters the house and announces an arrest warrant for the protagonist. The player is attacked by Dragoon. You can fight off enemies, but in the end it turns out that this is a futile exercise. I hear a lot of them. Peter Blood is captured and taken to prison.

Jail

The first of April 1665, hard labor. Jeremy's servant appears and says that Colonel Bishop wants to see Peter. Security arrives and takes the main character out of the cell straight into the colonel's office. Bishop apologizes for the misunderstanding and says that the soldiers were overzealous. Next, we go to the governor's residence.

We go up to the second floor. Miss Steed sits there crying. She needs medicine for her seriously ill husband. Next, you need to find Mr. Dan. Let's go looking for him. We find Dan's house. However, Peter’s competitor, Dr. Wacker, is already sitting on a chair there.

He asks the protagonist to come to the tavern later that day. We leave the house and meet Dan. We tell him that the governor’s wife urgently needs medicine. Hearing this, Dan gives the drug to Blood free of charge. We return to the governor’s estate and give the potion to Madame Steed.

Empty Tavern?

The main character heads to the local tavern. However, Wacker was not there. Then we go to his hut. We raise Wacker and explain to him the current situation. Wacker gives the main character 2000 piastres to organize a successful escape.

Assemble a team

In order to go on a long voyage, you must first organize a crew. Let's go hire service personnel. After the required number of sailors have been hired, we head to the port.

Adventures at sea

His faithful sailboat is waiting for the main character at the port. And so the ship sets sail, the weather is simply magnificent: a clear, cloudless day and a strong north wind. The ship heads north. After some time, the main character's ship is attacked by pirates. We successfully fight them off.

Then the conquistadors attack - this is a more serious threat. It’s easier to buy them off than to expose your skin to cannonballs, buckshot and a knipple. In the meantime walkthrough Corsairs: City of Lost Ships to be in full swing!

Cutthroat Bay

We are approaching a mysterious peninsula without a name, where it is necessary to track down four thugs who are planning to carry out high treason. Immediately after the crew disembarks on the island, we head north.

Along the way, the main character will be met by thugs who will demand a large sum for saving his life. We ask that criminals and bandits be escorted to their Leader.

Goodbye Aaron!

Peter Blood is led to the leader of the thugs' tent. Aaron invites you to his home. We accept the invitation. And as soon as Aaron is next to Peter, we strike with all our might with a sword, killing the head of the gang. Then we leave the tent and finish off the remaining enemies, sneaking up unnoticed on each of them.

Let's watch the final video. On this walkthrough of the game Corsairs: City of Lost Ships is coming to its logical conclusion!

— The Spanish squadron is directly ahead, captain!

—Thousand devils! All hands on deck! Guns for battle! Prepare grappling hooks and muskets! I will personally feed the cowards to the fish, and the rest will receive gold from the hold of that fat Spanish galleon! Starboard, fire!

More than six months after Return of the Legend, the Seaward team pleased us with an addition (which, by the way, was talked about back then, in February last year). Frankly, after the success of “Legend”, thoughts about new game there were a lot. What kind of game will it be? What will change? What will remain the same? However, there was no doubt that the addition would be no worse than the original. Are you ready to return to the Caribbean Sea, to the archipelago of new secrets and mysteries? Then we catch the wind - and full speed ahead!

The recipe is simple

To make a good expansion, you need to replicate the success of the original game. In other words, to do everything the same, but even better, even bigger, more exciting, and in our case, even more mysterious. In essence, “City of Lost Ships” is still the same “Legend”, but with a large chunk of new opportunities. For example, a whole bunch of new items have appeared - these are not just magic pots, but idols of very real Indian gods. Add new ones to your collection unique ships, a new storyline for pirates and a lot of mini-quests. All the innovations can’t be counted; I even doubt that I studied the original game one hundred percent. Well, what’s not a reason to find answers to “old” mysteries along with new adventures?

The Peter Blood storyline is worth mentioning separately. The similarity with Sabatini's creation is so great that it is possible to find a solution to some gaming problems right in the book! But these are just the beginnings, because there is also a main character - the City of Lost Ships. However, I’m not going to reveal all my cards yet, otherwise the intricate puzzles in the spirit of the first “Corsairs” will lose their unique charm.

"Stormy" sea

As an unknown player said: “the graphics don’t bother veterans.” No matter how wonderfully Storm draws the sea, the sun and the sky, the ships, characters and landscapes come out disgusting. Judge for yourself, we first saw a gaming heart in Pirates of the Caribbean, and that was almost five years ago. On the other hand, the poor capabilities of the engine force us to find another way out of the situation. Instead of rich detail and shaders, the player is encouraged to use his own imagination. Look at a pirate in a tavern or a simple passerby. Yes, for the most part they are not of gaming interest, but at the same time they are not “furniture”. This thug doesn’t just walk around the city (although in fact he’s just walking), but lives his own life. Maybe he just got off the ship after a long hunt at sea? However, what exactly he did depends only on you. Whether a pirate, a merchant, a money lender or a governor, they are all in your hands, like the entire archipelago.

Let's get back to specifics

The evaluation part ends here, let's now look at the goodies. To begin with, I think it’s worth understanding the main thing: what has changed? The English line was removed so that there would be no conflicts with the new pirate line. A new playable character has appeared, Peter Blood. The main difference from the others is that the game starts differently, that is, in England. If you remember, Blood was not immediately exiled to Barbados, so first you will have to deal with matters at Lord Gilroy's estate.

I have already spoken about a whole set of idols and statues, we will look at them in more detail later.

New tasks are everywhere: searching for the captain, catching pirates and much more. These tasks are generated randomly, but are well written, so they don’t become boring.

Be sure to check out the shipyard; almost all the vessels have been rebuilt, and new vessels have appeared - unique ones. You cannot buy them, you can only receive them for a task or take them away in battle.

And, perhaps, the main change is artificial intelligence became much smarter. Local grunts no longer rush at you like a herd of zerglings, interfering with each other. No, a fight with one opponent is already a test, with two - difficult task, and three or more is certain death! And if it is relatively easy to defeat a simple sailor, then it is much more difficult to defeat a captain or officer. Usually, for a novice adventurer, two or three blows are enough to give up the ghost, and one bullet is enough! Frankly, starting the game on the “Lieutenant” difficulty (this is a little easier than “average”), I did not expect such agility from the enemy, because last time everything was completely different. Be that as it may, the work on the AI ​​was not in vain, the game became more interesting and more realistic. The bulletproof hero from “Return of the Legend” has already become somewhat boring.

Pantheon of Indian Gods

Totem Xochiquetzal- goddess of flowers and love. It is not clear what love and flowers have to do with luck, but a good idol adds as much as twenty units to luck and does not require anything in return. In addition, you can get a tidy sum for it on the market.
Mictlantecuhtli totem- the god of the kingdom of the dead with a completely unpronounceable name. Adds twenty to stealth. Indispensable for the British and French if they desperately need to enter a hostile port. It costs even more than the Shochiquetzal idol. If you can’t disguise yourself, you can get a good price in the store.
Quetzalcoatl totem- God of the morning star and lord of the elements. His image adds twenty units of protection to the owner. It won’t be superfluous, because it’s quite difficult to develop defense. This is interesting: Quetzalcoatl is one of the most famous Indian gods. He is one of the main deities of ancient Mexico - “the serpent with precious feathers.” In mythology, he goes by many names, for example: Tezcatlipoca white, Eectal, Chopotl.
Mixcoatl totem- god of the hunt. His totem gives the owner a keen eye and a steady hand. In digital equivalent, this is twenty accuracy points. Mixcoatl literally means "Cloud Serpent". In mythology, he personifies the Milky Way, and especially the North Star.
Tezcatlipoca totem- the patron god of priests, punishing criminals. The totem adds twenty points to your pistol proficiency. This is interesting: According to the Aztecs, Tezcatlipoca symbolized winter, cold and the night sky. Therefore, to be honest, it is not very clear why the totem improves the use of pistols.
Chalchihuitlicue totem- goddess of fresh water, rivers, seas and lakes. A totem depicting a goddess adds twenty authority points. Now try to pronounce her name without hesitation, which, by the way, translates as “she is dressed in jade clothes.”
Huitzilopochtli totem- god of the blue clear sky, sun, war and hunting. The owner of the totem receives an increase of twenty units to the proficiency of medium weapons. This is interesting: Huitzilopochtli is one of the sons of Mixcoatl. His name roughly translates to “left-handed hummingbird.” It is curious that the hummingbird often personified the sun among many Central American tribes.
Tlaloc Totem- the god of rain and thunder, ruler of all edible plants. The totem adds twenty points to your light weapon proficiency. This is interesting: Tlaloc was primarily a beneficent god, but could cause deadly hail, floods, droughts, and lightning strikes.
Totem Mayahuel- the goddess of fertility who gave people an alcoholic drink. The totem adds twenty points to the skill " heavy weapons" Apparently, alcoholic beverages led to brawls involving heavy clubs.
Tonacatecuhtli Totem- God the creator, who gives food to people. The totem adds twenty trade points. Useful, not worth selling. This is interesting: Tonacatecuhtli and his wife Tonacacihual are considered the creators of the world and the first human couple. Moreover, they were considered the lords of Omeyokan - the uppermost sky.
Camashtli totem- god of hunting, stars, war and fate. It does not add any skills, so it is only suitable for sale.
Sinteotl's Totem- god of young corn. The totem adds twenty navigation points. A very useful totem, as it allows you to control ships a couple of ranks higher than the character’s skill. This is interesting: Sinteotl was considered the patron saint of farmers and goldsmiths.
Totem Tonatiuh- god of the sky and sun. In the game it acts as a commodity, such as tablets, precious stones and gold bars. This is interesting: Tanatiu means "Sun" in Aztec.
Totem Xipe Toteku- god of sowing and harvest. Adds twenty to the ability to repair a ship at sea. This is interesting: All the peoples of Central America had a holiday during which sacrifices were made to Xipe Totec. The priests dressed themselves in the skin of the sacrificed people and danced solemnly with the warriors.
Tlazolteotl totem- goddess-eater of dirt, cleanses from illicit passions. It does not add any characteristics, so it is only suitable for sale.

What do we have at the shipyard?

Barquentine- when Spanish merchants realized that they were becoming easy prey for pirates, they began to massively convert their clumsy galleons into barquentines. Thanks to the mixed sailing rig, the barquentine can move quite quickly in any direction. Although the transatlantic voyage takes longer, the barquentine is sure to escape the pirate. A good, and most importantly, cheap alternative to the brigantine. An expanded hold and excellent maneuverability - what more does a merchant need?

Royal Manowar- an improved version of the “floating fort”. Even more guns, even thicker armor, luxurious hull finish. The price of the vessel is such that hardly any country can afford more than one such beauty.

Flying Dutchman- You cannot buy this vessel, but you can receive it as a reward. It cannot be said that the Dutchman is very strong, but compared to other ships of its class it has excellent maneuverability and performance.

Sea wolf— a unique brig, handmade by master Alexus. High speed and excellent maneuverability make this brig a pirate's dream, and excellent close-hauled sailing guarantees a safe retreat. Nine cannons on each side will help in destroying the enemy team.

Arabella- former frigate Cinco Llagas. It was he who was taken away from the port of Bridgetown by Peter Blood right from under the noses of the Spaniards. An excellent ship, you just need to find a very good navigator.

Corvette- a ship whose equal cannot be found. An outstanding work of shipbuilding. Sturdy hull, large hold, thirty-two pound guns. Add to this excellent sailing rig and excellent close-hauled performance. Don't forget about the four dozen cannons on board. This Corvette is the best in its class.

Blue bird- this bird terrorizes the merchants of the Caribbean. It is not surprising - thanks to the fully oblique sailing rig, this xebek develops very high speed, and also goes very well in close-hauled mode. Add to this fantastic maneuverability, and you get the perfect sailboat for fast boarding.

Captain Blood

I already mentioned that one of the starting characters is Peter Blood. He's got a starting quest line, and if you're going to play as England, there's no better candidate.

Oglethorpe Manor

On the threshold you will meet Jeremy Pitt. He will say that the lord is seriously injured and you urgently need to give him first aid. Go up to the second floor, the bedroom will be on your left.

This is interesting: Peter Blood - doctor, bachelor of medicine. In response to a call for help, he rushed to the Oglethorpe estate, and was then captured by Colonel Kirk's dragoons. Gilroy assisted the rebel Monmouth, and Blood was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Some dragoons are invulnerable, so there is no point in running from them.

And here is the key, lying quietly on the table.

Now you need to take the saber, it is on the balcony in the chest. But the chest is locked, and first you need to find the key. While exploring the City of Lost Ships forums, I noticed that the key is usually the first major obstacle. Go down to the first floor and turn right. There is a table next to the stairs, and you will find the key on it. The humor is that when you first enter the house, the key is not yet on the table, and Pitt does not say where it is.

We open the chest and arm ourselves; in a few seconds the dragoons will arrive at the estate. No matter what you say, you will still be accused of aiding the rebels. And when they find Pitt in the fireplace... In general, a fight cannot be avoided.

This is interesting: At Sabatini's, Jeremy was hiding in the linen closet.

No matter how masterly you wield a sword, the dragoons will still prevail (some of them are immortal), but do not rush to load up, this is how it should be. Peter Blood will wake up in prison, and after a short trial he and Jeremy Pitt will be sent to “His Majesty’s Southern Colonies,” or rather, to the island of Barbados.

Plantation

Feel free to rummage through the chests on the plantation and in the city, later you can sell the goods.

Welcome to His Majesty's Southern Colonies!

Welcome to Barbados. Peter Blood is a slave and a sugar cane miner, but he is no ordinary slave. Whatever one may say, he is a qualified doctor, and you can count the smart doctors on the archipelago on one hand. Therefore, Blood is allowed to move freely around the island and the city. Except that trading is prohibited, as is carrying weapons, of course.

It is important: if the guard sees you have a weapon, he will ask you to hand it over. Do not resist, since fighting with an entire island is a disastrous task.

The first task is to help Mrs. Steed, the governor's wife. By the way, this is one of the opportunities to earn some money. Chat with her, and then ask the governor for two and a half thousand to buy a “very expensive medicine.” He will promise to check everything, but in reality he will forget about the money as soon as you leave his residence. Migraine medicine can be found in the house of Mr. Dan, the pharmacist, on the second floor.

A little later, Dr. Vacker, one of the other two doctors on the island, will approach you and suggest... you run away. Peter Blood is the only slave who can leave the plantation and calmly wander around the city, so he can prepare an escape without difficulty or special suspicion. Just first you need to assemble a team, get weapons and buy a ship. Vacker promises to help with the ship, everything else will have to be obtained personally. Well, Pitt will run away with us of his own free will, and three other officers still need to be recruited.

Preparing to escape

Wacker wants to get rid of Blood so much that he is ready to help him escape.

Outside the city, Winterwood is the easiest to defeat, the main thing is to dodge the shot.

So, we have three officers, and each of them is held by something on the island. Hagthorpe, who served in the Royal Navy, demands the death of a certain Stuart Winterwood. This man took him and sold him into slavery. Hagthorpe does not disclose details, but he is not going to leave without proof of Winterwood’s death. Junior officer Nicholas Dake agrees to escape, but right before his escape, Bishop sells him. Slaves are living goods; What can you do, you’ll have to help Dake out somehow. The last one is artilleryman Ogle. He owes a decent amount of money to the moneylender and is not going to leave until he pays it back.

Hagthorpe

Let's start in order. Stuart Winterwood can be found in the tavern, sitting at one of the tables. Invite him to meet outside the city; he will agree and will also give you a weapon. If you run into him in a tavern, you will most likely die. Unless you hid a dusak somewhere...

After an hour, go out into the jungle (there is a second exit from the city, to the right of the residence) and wait for the enemy. Please note that he is quite strong, so I recommend saving before the fight. After winning, do not forget to remove the ring (along with your finger) and a thousand piastres from your body. The ring must be presented to Hagthorp, and a thousand gold pieces will still come in handy.

Nicholas Dake

As I already said, they want to buy Dyke, we need to break the deal. Visit the merchant and the bartender, go to the port office, and you will learn that a merchant from Jamaica recently arrived in town. He is located in one of the houses of the city (his abode is next to the tavern), let's visit him.

So Weston decided to buy Dake on the cheap. Bishop is his old friend and wants to give him a discount. To break the deal, you need to rob a Jamaican merchant. Wait until he turns away and rummage through his chest. There you will find six thousand piastres, an idol and a letter of marque. Now Weston will have nothing to buy Dake with, which means he can run away with us. And a large sum of money, no doubt, will be useful to you.

Ogle

The last one on our team is the one-eyed artilleryman Ogle. He owes a lot to the moneylender, and we need to pay for it. The moneylender gave Oglu five thousand piastres. If you have already robbed Weston, it will not be difficult for you to pay.

Weapon

If you don't have enough cash, you can try to get weapons with the help of a smuggler, but this is much more dangerous.

The team has been assembled. Now you need to take care of the weapons and the ship. Go to the tavern and chat with the bartender; he will tell you that Mr. Griffin is dealing with weapons in the city. Let's go to him.

This is the guideline: Griffin lives in a white stone house next to the residence, on the left.

Griffin got robbed! Some Spanish thug ordered weapons from him, but without waiting for the order, he tore the collection sabers from the wall. Everything would be fine, but they are engraved by a master, which means that if the Spaniard is caught, both will be hanged. We cannot allow this, so we set off in pursuit of the Spaniard - he went to the fisherman Hells (his house to the right of the residence).

Entering the house, we will see that the stern fisherman has already dealt with the invader himself. All that remains is to pick up the “marked” weapon and take it to Griffin. By nightfall he will have made the required number of sabers and pistols without any markings.

This is the advice: bargain. Reduce the price for the work to a thousand piastres, the money will still come in handy.

Ship

The basic preparations are complete, all that remains is to get the ship. Wacker gave out only eighteen thousand instead of the required twenty-five. Nothing can be done, we need to get another seven thousand.

It is important: you can't sell anything, so you can only earn money. If you strictly followed the guide, you need to find not seven thousand, but less.

Let's go to the city. The moneylender will be the first - he will ask you to extract money from the scammer. He is sure that the debtor has not yet left the island, because no one has sailed today.

Don't forget that Blood is a slave. You will have to return to the plantation every day.

Buddy! Let's have a glass... and then you can tell me where you fish.

Visit the innkeeper - he knows exactly where to find the debtor, but you will have to pay five hundred gold pieces for the information. The bartender will tell you that Rafael Guinness got money for a ship somewhere and went to the shipyard to finalize the deal. This is our “client”, you just need to catch him and threaten him with the gallows to get the money. Minus the innkeeper's remuneration, the reward is two and a half thousand.

The next opportunity to make money is to find out where Hells' competitor is fishing. The fact is that Summerlight has found a fishing spot, but, naturally, is in no hurry to share information. It should be noted that Summerlight loves to drink, you might have seen him in the tavern. He hasn’t gone anywhere, he’s still fermenting in the corner. We sit down next to him and carefully elicit information. I don’t recommend asking direct questions, otherwise Summerlight will suspect something is wrong and won’t say anything.

As a reward you will receive two thousand piastres. Total four and a half thousand.

Last day in captivity, we need to rest before escaping.

The last opportunity to get money is a meeting with Jacques Sparrow.

This is interesting: in fact, there are plenty of opportunities to get money, and that’s not all. However, if you followed the guide exactly, then after completing at least these three quests you will have enough money for a ship.

When you enter a store, instead of a seller you will see a pirate. He will introduce himself " Captain Jacques Sparrow,” and then... However, I won’t spoil the fun. Agree to help Jacques sail to Tortuga and go to the shipyard. The shipbuilder will tell you about a captain who just bought a corvette. Oh, and don't forget that you must keep Jacques's identity a secret. Find John Miner on the streets of the city, he will agree to deliver Jacques to Tortuga. We take one and a half thousand piastres and go to Vacker. The job is done, there should be enough money to buy the ship.

Now you need to transfer the money to James Nuttal so that he can buy the ship without suspicion. By evening you will find out that Nattal deceived you, and Bishop figured out Pitt.

Escape and the Spaniards

The large ship that was allowed to enter Carlisle Bay so calmly under a false flag turned out to be a Spanish privateer. He chose the time for the raid when there was not a single warship in Carlisle Bay.

His cunning remained so undetected that, without arousing suspicion, he calmly entered the bay and saluted the fort with a broadside salvo from twenty guns at point-blank range. Just a few moments later, two hundred and fifty Spaniards landed on the shore and took possession of the city.

The weapon lies in this chest, next to the woodpile.

Come in from the rear. While the Spaniards are fighting with your team, you can tickle them with your saber with almost impunity.

And first we need to free Jeremy Pitt. Beware of patrols. If it is quite easy to defeat one Englishman, then it is almost impossible to defeat two or three. I advise you to avoid meeting with soldiers; first you need to get a more solid weapon.

Right at the entrance to Bridgetown you will meet a Spanish officer. I recommend saving before the fight, since he has a pistol, and his fencing skills are also excellent. After defeating him, you will be able to remove a good saber and a long-barreled pistol from his body.

Our team is waiting at the shipyard, there is nothing else to do in the city, so go to the beach and enter the water. The door is barricaded, and you can only get inside through the slipways. You will also have to swim to get to the frigate; there is a gangway on the sea side.

The fight with the soldiers will be relatively easy, but with the captain you will have to work hard. Perhaps, after the key in the estate, this is one of the most “dead-end” moments. The point here is this: the captain kills our hero with one pistol shot. Therefore, do not rush to grab your saber, but run up close. In this case, the captain will not shoot, but will immediately go into close combat. Then everything depends on you.

Sea battle

All that remains is to break away from this lugger, and that’s all - freedom!

The frigate is captured. It would seem that this is freedom. But it was not there. To begin with, you naturally have a low “navigation” score. Pitt, of course, is a navigator, but his skill level is only 50. And to control a frigate without penalties you need at least 80 points. Receive penalties to all stats (-4 each), with all skills dropping to 1.

Now comes the surprise. There are two Spanish luggers in the roadstead. I think there is no need to explain that with such skill indicators you will not be able to shoot accurately, and the boarding will end in failure. Therefore, immediately throw everything you can overboard and keep your nose strictly to the wind. Luggers, of course, are fast ships, but they cannot catch up with the frigate. Remember, you have no chance in battle.

This is where the game actually begins. Instead of a small barque or brig, Blood immediately has a frigate. Carry out trade orders - you have a large hold, and they will give you a lot of money for transporting goods. By the way, don’t forget to fire the entire team, they are simply not needed. First you need to save up for a fourth-class ship so that there are no fines, and deposit the frigate in the first friendly port.

This concludes the introductory part. I deliberately did not give away all the secrets of the game, but next time I will tell you where to find the City of Lost Ships and how to capture Panama together with Henry Morgan. In addition, I would like to give a glass to Andrei Larionov, who, like an old sailor, led me through the underwater rocks and reefs of this wonderful game.
