Sail. Trade. Battle. Hunt for treasure.
The year is 1718. You've commandeered a modest sloop and a ragtag crew of twelve. Rumors speak of a legendary treasure split into five map fragments, scattered across the world's most dangerous ports. Fortune favors the bold — will you trade your way to riches, raid merchant ships, or seek the treasure itself?
The five map fragments reveal the location. Dig to find the legendary treasure!
Digs remaining: 15
Pirate Adventure is a free browser-based game where you command a pirate ship across the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and Pacific oceans. Trade goods between ports, recruit crew, upgrade your ship, battle merchant vessels and rival pirates, and hunt for a legendary treasure split into five map fragments. Multiple play styles are viable — become a wealthy trader, a feared raider, or a cunning explorer.
A full playthrough takes 10-20 minutes depending on your strategy. You need to collect 5 treasure map fragments from ports across the world, then find and dig up the legendary treasure. Trader-focused runs may take longer, while aggressive raiders can finish faster.
Yes! Each port has different prices for goods like rum, spices, silk, and gunpowder. Buy low in one port and sell high in another to build your fortune. Caribbean ports have cheap rum, Mediterranean ports want spices, and Pacific ports pay premium for silk.
Combat uses a broadside timing system. A target indicator moves across the enemy ship — click Fire at the right moment for maximum damage. Your cannon upgrades increase damage, crew morale affects accuracy, and hull upgrades give you more hit points. Win battles to claim gold and cargo.
