Mysterious Things are Happening on Vooju Island...

Legendary video game writer and developer Bill Tiller (The Curse of Monkey Island, A Vampyre Story) tells a gripping tale of pirates, ghosts, and mysterious Vooju magic. Vooju priest Papa Doc, bumbling cook Blue Belly, and impetuous pirate Jane Starling have fallen victim to the nefarious plans of the Papa Doc’s wife, the devious Queen Zimbi. The nefarious Zimbi has used her mysterious Vooju magic to curse and transform our three intrepid characters into ghosts. Can you help them rejoin their bodies before they join the ranks of the undead forever?

Set amidst a mythical Caribbean world of Vooju magic and unmistakable pirate humor, Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island challenges you to help the heroic ghostly trio regain their human forms and thwart the dark machinations of the Vooju priestess and her pirate allies.

Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island reviews and comments

Translated by
Microsoft from Deutsch
The Game is bad. It is a Point & Click with a pirate theme and with three Protagonists. A Caribbean voojou witch has a nasty Plan that she wants to realize with The Help of Pirates and Zombies. Her Husband and two "good" Pirates who get in the Way of her curses them so that their Souls are separated from their Bodies. The three Protagonists must first regain their Bodies and then seek Support to thwart the Witch's Plans. I didn't think the story was so good, probably also because it starts with a rather confusing Intro And the People act a bit silly. There Are a few Gags, but it's just not really entertaining. A lot of Things just hardly make Sense. The Gameplay could be relatively interesting in itself, even if it's not entirely new to be able to switch between three People who can also interact with each other. But here the Handling Is somewhere between average and laborious. Objects are usually not really removed, but only their Symbols (even if he just said that it is not possible or he does not want to). These can then be combined and then often applied. You can also ask your Companions about this. After some Time, you get used to handling Things in this slightly strange Way. The Puzzles usually consist of the correct Combination and Application of the Objects. This is the case, but some people like to give me little or even his Meaning. You often try something, and aha, it works sometimes. It is Annoying that the spoken Texts cannot be abbreviated. What is good in itself is that the Heroes have something to say about everything and everything becomes an Agony if you try a lot or even have it run again from accidental. The Animations must also be finished well before you can do something again. The Graphics are very simple and, to me, perhaps the most chilling thing about the Game. 15 Years Ago, she might have been good. Especially the People are very simply elaborated and often seem very silly in their rowing and Wobbling Movements and misshapen shapes. The Objects are just as simple. Only the Backgrounds are OK. The Sound is OK. The Lyrics are all spoken (in German), which in itself would be good if they could be shortened if necessary. The Controls go like this. What Is strange is that you can move some Objects in the Inventory, some of them can't. Pro & Contra: + (Maybe) the unusual Collaboration of three Protagonists + Some (Rather tedious) Gags o Often strange Puzzles and Solutions-Bad graphics-Very common inventory-No Abbreviation of Texts and Animations-Alberne history and part silly Protagonists Rating: 3/10 The Game is much compared to (The Curse of) Monkey Island because an Employee has worked on both Projects. This Game here is miles away from being similarly good somehow. Personally, I can only advise against it.
