If I were to sum up this game in a single word it would be atmosphere. The game is rich with it.. Kept crashin' on my system constantly - roughly every 20min. Managed to play to the end.Interesting story anyway. The UX of the game is a bit "not fun", I'd prefer more smooth interface.If wouldn't crash, would have given positive review.. Too cryptic for me. I dunno if I was missing something, but I couldn't find my way out of the first room. So I had to give up. Therefore, I didn't have much fun with this one. Some clues for dimbos like me would have been nice. ;-). A creepy and mysterious point-and-click adventure game.Story 10/10Graphics 7/10Gameplay 8/10Choices matter 10/10Enjoy!. Decent point&click adventure game with a nice (if not predictable) story line. Every now and again the game crashes (mainly when entering another area that has to load) but if you save your game regularly (no limit to saves) you just start up again, continu and be able to finish the game. Camera angles are sometimes strange which makes selecting an certain area of object a real task to the point of being frustrating. Overall I enjoyed playing the game, however the end if very predictable, abrupt and unsatisfying.. font, όπως και του περιορισμένου πεδίου εμφάνισης έκαστου hotspot, αλλά στον πυρήνα του κρύβει μία ιστορία που θα σας κάνει να περάσετε καλά μαζί της για ένα-δύο απογεύματα. Η ατμόσφαιρά του θα διατηρήσει το ενδιαφέρον σας ζεστό, όπως το ίδιο θα κάνουν και τα οράματα της Anna. Δεν είναι το adventure game που θα σας συγκλονίσει ή θα σας μείνει αξέχαστο, δε θα μετανιώσετε όμως για τον χρόνο που θα του διαθέσετε.It's not an unforgettable experience or the adventure game that will leave you stunned, but it surely was worth Deck13's time and effort to translate it into English language after five whole years. A short but atmospheric journey that leaves its final meaning to our judgement.http://www.ragequit.gr/reviews/item/black-sails-the-ghost-ship-pc-review. Our adventure begins when our character, Anna and Lex, who's evidently isn't the niceste person in the world, are involved in a shipwreck while traveling to Europe. While trying to survive, they spot a boat engulfed in a ghostly mist. They board it. and so the game begins. You must progress through the ship and find a way to get to land.As the usual point and click adventure game, you will have solve diverse environmental puzzles. They are all pretty logic so you should be able to progress just fine without looking things up, although this is affected sometimes by some things that are placed in places a bit too dark or obstructed to check, and sometimes using the mouse over the object you want doesn't always work, so you can be fooled to think something wasn't possible but it was just fault of the game not registering it properly. Anyhow, the puzzles are good and engaging, so you won't be bored by them or spend hours trying to decipher horribly over-cryptic things like in some other P&Cs.In your conversations with Lex you will have different dialogue options that will affect your relationship with him. Positive, neutral or negative. It will change some of his dialogue he has, and a minor gameplay effect (he might help you if you act positive or just be a rude idiot if you act negative). Either way, he's a pretty unlikeable character that barely does anything to help at all while you solve everything, but that's actually somewhat justified for story reasons, so it's understandable and it works well.Throughout the ship you will also find several notes detailing the past of the misterious ship. as well as some visions of people of that time. You must figure out what truly happened to this cursed ship and its inhabitants.The game is somewhat graphically outdated, even for a game released in 2011. However, it has a strong artstyle that makes up for it. You will find some poor textures here and there, but overall it looks pleasant to the eye and actively contributes to create a creepy atmosphere.Speaking of that creepy atmosphere, both the visuals and sound do well at create a unnerving feeling throughout the game, with you not being sure what's coming next. (although the game could use some expanded soundtrack. The game is perhaps too quiet at times). The whole ship makes you wonder what may've happened here.Regarding voice acting in English, Anna's alright but I found that Lex was too monotone and not much expression. While I guess it's a decent result overall, I'd say for you to play it in the original German voices as they have better voice acting, and as well as voiced elements that are not in the english version.(Anna in German narrates the intro cutscene, and reads the notes you find outloud. This does not happen in English)The game is a bit on the short side 3/4 hours, and it does feel that ends a little bit too soon, but for the price of 7.5$ that's pretty understandable and well worth it.I'd recommend this to any classic 3D P&C fan, it does it's job pretty well, and it's worth the asking price.My only grievance with the game was a bug that appeared a few times where the game would lose voice sound and eventually crash. Happened 3 times in my playthrough. I expect that it will be patched fast so not much of an issue. I also had a save bug where the the save dissapeared and I had to start the game, but it only happened that one time.7/10Disclaimer: Key given by the devs for review purposes.
