About

Arrr matey! It’s a pirate’s life for me!

Grab your parrot, your eye patch, and sail the Caribbean in search of adventure, treasure, beautiful maidens, or all of the above in Pirates! Gold Plus. With a letter of marque in your hand, you can fly the flag of France, the Dutch Republic, England, or Spain. Change your loyalties as you see fit, all in the name of fame and profit. You won’t be sailing alone--your rough and ready crew comes along with you. Don’t forget to split the spoils with them or you may find that you're the one who's walking the plank.

You begin with a letter of marque, a humble ship, and a bit of gold. As a privateer for either the Dutch Republic, France, England, or Spain you’ll hire your crew and set sail for treasure and adventure. Discover lost cities as you put together treasure maps acquired from seedy pubs or rescue your long-lost family members.

Bombarding enemy ships with hull-crushing cannonballs. Crossing swords with scurvy rogues. It's the life of high-seas adventure when you journey through the swashbuckling world of Pirates! Gold Plus.Includes the 1987 original Sid Meier's Pirates! and 1993's Pirates! Gold. You'll criss-cross your way along the 17th century Spanish Main in search of thrilling adventures. Assault towns and forts, battle with garrison commanders, fire your cannons broadside at an armada of foes, including Spanish War Galleons, Dutch Frigates, French Merchantmen, and even English Sloops! Search for lost cities and treasure or take it by force from the other pirates!
