Pirate Kings vs Puzzle Pirates
Pirate Kings
Pirate Kings is a very easy - how hard it is to press a button, right? - and casual game of chance whereby players need to spin the wheel of fortune for a chance to get money or to take an offensive or defensive move. With the money that you’ve won from either the wheel or from attacking other players (or even your friends!), you can upgrade and beautify your personal pirate island into a tropical paradise. A fair warning though - if you enjoy attacking and stealing from your friends’ islands, you may risk damaging your friendship with them... Pirate Kings is almost like the next "friendship-breaking game" like UNO!Anyway, Pirate Kings is the sort of game that you can play in between jobs or during breaks since it takes very little of your time. If you're interested, well, it doesn't take you a lot to go check it out and give the game a try.
Puzzle Pirates
Puzzle Pirates is a kid-friendly, MMO adventure-puzzle game where players get to not only play as swashbuckling pirates but also explore a world filled with tons of fun mini-games as they try to build up their own pirate's reputation. The game features plenty of fun avatar customization as well, allowing you to dress your virtual self up whichever way you like.To complement this, the game even has a very robust crafting and trading system in place where you can place your order for a new peg leg (for example) at various shops or you can simply craft one yourself, provided that you have everything you need. You can also sell any extra crafted items you have to other players and set up a small little business for yourself in the game.
Being an MMO, Puzzle Pirates provide players with a ton of cooperative gameplay opportunities. For instance, when you're out at sea, players on the same voyage will need to switch jobs according to the circumstances and need of the crew as a whole. There's also a fun tetris-like game, which simulate swordfights, that you can play alongside your fellow pirates whenever your ship is being boarded by a rival pirate crew.
Although the game hasn't gotten as much attention as say... Pirate 101, Puzzle Pirates is still among the best pirate-themed MMO games out there that is incredibly fun to play and is perfect for the entire family. This game is pretty much timeless!
Most parts of the game are free-to-play, though there are some that will require a subscription.
