Comments on Pirates and Traders for Android

★★★★★ James Mathew · Apr 30, 2021

It's a full old-fashioned pirate game similar to the PC games that are low in cost, you can trade and manage ship upgrades. Be a pirate or a trader, a simulator you're likely to enjoy.

★★★★☆ Justin Palamidis · Feb 25, 2021

This game is hard but the way to go is the just be The smuggler and smuggle weapons into other ports or gems and get a better price on them like sell French guns in a Spanish port to where they're not allowed, so you'll get more money

★★★★★ Kevin Kjellstrom · Jul 16, 2021

An amazing game. I've died a lot a first, but you learn as you go. My best experience was getting caught and arrested by my country, just for them to free me at the cost of one of their treasure ships. I found it, boarded it, seized it, sailed it. They promoted me to notorious.

★★★★☆ Erik Knutson · Apr 28, 2021

Fun game, but sacking ports and crew experience gain could use tweaking imo.

★☆☆☆☆ Ethan Stewart · Aug 31, 2020

Apprentice is impossible, yes, I said that. They send Pirate warships that take all your food and items. And it turns out that they're OVERPOWERED. Also, if you have a MASSIVE ship and big army, but the leader of a pirate pinnacle beats you, say goodbye to your haul! And maybe your LIFE. And your people want at LEAST 75% of your plunder. So, no repairs, upgrades, or new ships unless you spend 5 days on one game.

★☆☆☆☆ Kirill “Kiri” Volgaev · Sep 11, 2024

Terrible experience. A 15-year-old can't even play this game without it crashing or some lazy bug arising. Shame on you.

★☆☆☆☆ Jay E Bragais · Jun 13, 2026

The game lacks logic, I had reached a rank of rear admiral and basically.... I'm still a nobody, I can't borrow a troop, can't borrow a ship, can't borrow a navy. Historically speaking, in port Royal, privateering worked differently such that when you call for help on a governor as long as the cause was good for the state, and you reported accordingly, they could lend you a hand on blocking trade routes on a port or just help you attack a port, but in this game, you attack with only your crew
