A musical match-3 RPG brimming with pirates, ships, loot, and more gold than you can shake your rusty hook at!
Move your pirate around the board by matching 3 or more tiles. With each match, the board shifts in the direction you swiped. Collect treasure as you visit mysterious jungle, desert, ice, and fire islands to reassemble a legendary Ultimate Sea Shanty. Fight to the death with evil pirates and monsters. Or, blast them with your arsenal of handy skills!
* Universal App & iCloud for pirates on the go! Pick up exactly where you left off on any device. * Choose from 100 hats, shirts, swords, heads, and more to customize your pirate. * Use special skills to dodge enemies, collect extra loot, or win epic boss battles. * Build countless (okay, nine) different ships that improve your pirate’s buffs and stats. * Complete side quests and 50 GameCenter achievements -- you’ll be plundering for days. * Great replay value! Randomly generated islands keep the game going after completing the Ultimate Sea Shanty. * Share your exploits and pictures of your pirate with built-in Facebook and Twitter.

8 of 15I really enjoyed playing this game, it gave me tons of hours of fun, I've recommended it to almost all my friends and to my wifw too, and now she is hooked to it just like I was.
Fantastic game! It is wonderfully addictive and challenging.
Refreshing, entertaining and challenging each time the game is played to the very end. Great graphics and spectacular music. Good plots to keep you entertained.
Your current match 3 puzzle games are going to take a back seat once you get your hands on Scurvy Scallywags. It's not just a score combo and earn points game, it's a killer adventure! What really takes this game to the next level is the customer service Beep Games delivers. I'm sure you're going to enjoy this game as much, if not more than all of us have. Cheers to Scurvy Scallywags and the people who made this game possible!
This is what games should be. Creative, clever, fun, and not filled with game killing mechanics that require you to buy in-app purchases. You buy it once and it is yours, no reserves. More people that like matching games should play this!
addicting and fun, play it for hours. i’ve enjoyed and played this game since it came out in 2013...still love it!
This was written for old phones, older Apple ecosystems, but still plugs along just fine. I love the almost home-made sound effects. I don’t love the cloud sync conflict screen that shows white rectangles instead of helpful text.
I rarely purchase apps, but I bought this game sight unseen based on the fact that one of the designers is Ron Gilbert of Maniac Mansion and Monkey Island. It's a match 3 but better. The direction you swipe to make your match determines where your character moves and where the new tiles slide in from. Which is super helpful since you have to avoid fighting the enemies until you've accumulated enough power swords. AND who doesn't love a pirate shanty.
