About the Game


It’s a pirate’s life for me
Pirates Job simulates the dark reality of modern-day piracy, as observed on the coastal regions of eastern Africa. As a growing number of people end up pushed to a life of crime by either their choices or their circumstances, the player joins them on violent raids carried out against all manner of commercial vessels.


Beaten down the hatches
And violent will those raids be. You’ll often find yourself on board of a ramshackle speedboat with a mounted machine gun and a well-used AK in hand. You’ll need to intercept a weak target and, without remorse, terrorize the crew and take what you can get your hands on, risking life and limb. You’ll live a short and cruel life. That is, unless you truly succeed with your attacks…


Yo ho ho and a crateload of gun
If you manage to survive and make off with valuable loot, you’ll be able to afford some urgently needed equipment. You never know when an opportunity for a really grand heist comes knocking at your door… or well-trained guards come knocking on your head… Better be ready for both – buy new guns, gadgets, roll up your sleeves and install those coveted upgrades on your boat yourself.


Raise the Not-So-Jolly Roger
More than that, along with successful hijacking comes the player character’s rise in the local hierarchy. Establish connections, exert some hard-earned influence, and become a genuine pirate captain. Recruit a crew of loyal, mostly capable men. No longer will you or they need to suffer poverty when you work together and become the most ruthless pirates known to sailors.


Dead men tell the best tales
You now know what needs to be done. It’s either blood on your hands or hunger for the rest of your days. Embark on a shocking journey of action-packed gunfights on the open seas. Pirates Job will offer you a variety of missions and possibilities for securing money – robbing, kidnapping, hijacking, and more.
It’s up to you were this uncertain path takes you. To the top of a mountain of riches? Or down a watery grave?
