About the game

4 PIRATA La Vengeance

4 PIRATA is a first-person pirate ship simulator. The Atlantic, around 1715: the three-masted frigate La Vengeance — the kind pirates took as prizes and re-armed — sails under the Jolly Roger, with the sloop La Corneille alongside.

You aren’t watching from outside: you’re aboard, and the deck heels under your feet. You climb down to the gun deck with its hammocks, look into the captain’s cabin with its chart and globe and step out onto the stern balcony. At the wheel you set sail and brace the yards, at the capstan you drop anchor, and you aim the swivel guns yourself: the ball flies in an arc, so you aim high and lead the target.

The ship obeys the wind: no sail draws dead upwind, and the heavy frigate turns slowly. A hole at the waterline lets the sea in, compartments flood one by one, and a stricken ship heels and goes under, hull first, then masts.
