Breaker Run

Every wave is a decision. Tap to furl before the curl. Hold through the rollers. Keep your sails up when the privateer fires.

A one-thumb pirate game about reading the sea. Swells lift you over. Breakers curl their lip toward you: tap to furl before the crest reaches the hull. Wide rollers keep their lip over you: hold until their foam has passed. Lightning wants your mast down; the privateer’s cannonball wants your sails up. Deep in the Maelstrom you are watching two things at once.

Pocket doubloons from the swells and spend them in the shop: nine ships from sloop to dreadnought, each with its own boon, plus sails, hulls, pirate flags with emblems, sail marks, figureheads and wakes. Legendary pieces take many sessions to earn.
