Banned SantaMaria for cheating like u have account banned for life never allow back on for cheating breaking rules.
Dont listen to people saying that it lags or bugs or crashes that is never the case, they just have horrible devices and internetANYWAYS!!!! This game we grew up always playing, just the combat, the bulding, the ships, the pirates everything just is so perfect and its so nostalgic, we want to be able to revive this game so if you see this please do play we promise its so much fun, in our opinion its better then CoC always!! Im grinding this game our for forever and we hope we can spark the developers interest in the game again.
Our friend and we are playing the game having a good time playing this game but. Were experiencing glitches. He can tap exit on his phone when playing and leaving certain menus. And we noticed objects missing when editing layouts in the village. Any helps appreciated thanks.
Just frustrating letting 5min errands sit.
Lots of fun to play, if you played the sims or any similar game, youre gonna like this one too! Best of luck.
We enjoy this game but we cant join a clan because it kicks us out when we click to build one.
We played this game years ago and thought we would try it again but the game looks like there have had few new developments since then. How about a Southern map, new pirate, new level? Come on guys. This is a good game but you get topped out because the dev team has nearly abandoned it.
We really, really, really love plunder Pirates. But theres a tiny itty-bitty flaw every time we try to get the grand hall it kicks us out. Can we get some help that glitch.
Plzs banned cannonball and joker and king eru from game he big cheater needs to lost his account for 30 days for cheating.
Deleted this game once because we needed space on our phonethere was not a day that went by that we didnt think about our Island. So happy to have our pirates back! Ahoy Mateys.
We like the art style of this game and hope the developer will keep up the good work.
Closest thing to clash of clans for the pirate side.
Beautiful graphics, very fair gameplay and easy to achieve rewards. Recommend to younger players.
Very fun clash of clans-style mobile game. If youre a fan of COC and like the pirate theme then this is the perfect game for you.
Its more of a vibe and has a more fun adventure mode. Sailing the maps is a pretty fun pass time. And dont feel the need to go for 4 builders, 3 is plenty enoughThe One Piece Is Real.
We got this game because our friend recommended it and it was so fun we thought it would be just a strategy game but it was so cool.
Game is fun and would like to see this get more updates.
This game is by far amazing, we love how you can spend so much time decorating your island and you can go into the cinematic camera and it shows you all different angles of your island. We love how beautiful the water looks! Please keep up with this game.
A very well-made game with great graphics and lots to do, explore, build. Very entertaining and would recommend.
We have only had this game for a couple days, and after figuring out a couple of things about how the game works, Im loving it.
The art-style and themes, and overall mechanics were well crafted. Not another copy/paste game. The only constructive criticism we want to provide is to give players a more adjustable UI scale; Text scaling. The numbers of resources appears very small on our screen.
Used to play when we were 9, came back at 15 and still love the game to this day 12/16/2023.
Its a great game we would recommend it the only problem is we cant build our guild hall.
We enjoy this game so much! It makes us very happy! We feel like a pirate when Im playing it.
We wanted a pirate game were u can ruin other peoples land.
We dont write reviews for games at all really but we think this is one worth a rating. We work six days a week and still manage to play lol. Its kinda a pay to win but they do give you enough resources to deal. Its kinda like coc but who doesnt like pirates. This is a win by us.
Lots of great graphics along with fun pirates!! Lots to do.
Unfortunately Apple introduced a bug in their date picking code in IOS 15. This means that for our American players who have to legally go through a COPPA check, the game crashes when trying to build a Guild Hall. As far as we're aware, the only way around this is to play (if only temporarily, just to build the Guild Hall) on an Android device or emulator, or to go on a VPN and set your country outside the US. We ourselves am going through these troubles and just recently found out how to fix it. We hope this helps if anybody reads this. Best of luck plundering ~we screwed an ant (<plunder pirates username).

The game is very nice,but why last update was 2 years ago? This so bad.
This is a fun game. You chose to watch the ads if you want to receive an award. Game load very fast.
Seacrocs is cheating on game plzs banned for life.
This game is so fun. Havent come across any glitches or issues.
So important to keep this terrific game updated.
Berserk is a horror of nature and one we very much enjoy.
Very entertaining to play on a long flight or while waiting for class.
Fun and no need to spend money. Plus the timing is super for a game you dont have always look down at.
This is the best get video game you ever buy it is it is so fun and it never ends. Theres always something you to build and always more to ponder. If you are looking for a wonderful game this is the game to play.
We just got this game, and so far we like it, its addictive! But the only downside is we cant build the guild hall, our game closes out back to the homescreen, itd be amazing if that bug can be fixed.
At first, we thought this was one of those games that fake the pictures but we were so so wrong. This game is so good. You have to get this. It will change your life. This game is so good. Trust us, its good. We highly recommend this game if you are looking at it.
COC has a donation multiplier that allows lower level players to donate to higher lvl players in an alliance.as a lower level new player we feel left out when we cannot donate and participate in our alliance. We understand that upgrading units in this game is vastly different than COC but if you want gamer retention you might want to rethink ways for new players like us who want to contribute when your player base has a higher lvl of players.
Loved it then love it now, wished more people were active:(.
This is ye game deservin' of a good review ye scallywags.
Love the game!!! The game covers strategy, adventure, fun, teamwork, designing, and great special effects. What is not to love!?! ::grin:: Be safe.
We used to play this when we were a kid, revisited it and it was just as fun as we remembered it. 10/10 would definitely recommend.
Im new to the game but when we try to build guild hall the game crashes please fix.
We love the game we would like it more if it had a more variety of pirates,.
Thank you for making a fabulous game.
Pease Midoki. Please unban us Ill change. Just please forgive us.
This is a good pirate game because it has pirates and pirates remind us of pirates of the the Caribbean because it also has pirates in it to and also because theres an ocean and we really like oceans because theres water in them but its very salty water and it doesnt taste very good.
