The only reason I gave this game two stars was that the sea battles were fairly fun......the rest was just plain awful.......it came pre-packaged with a GBA (the kiss of death for a game right there). don't bother unless you get it for 50 cents.............

.........no jack sparrow here

I got this game for Christmas, because my friend knew how much I loved the movie. This game is pretty much true to it's plot with some new characters and twists. But basically, this game has a little over twenty semi-challenging missions, which you eventually complete and the game ends.
In between, you will do things like fight town soldiers, fight pirates, fight Spanish soliders, fight fat pirates, fight hoardes of orange crabs, and fight dead pirates. This all culminates into more and more fighting which leads to the Ultimate Fight with Captain Barbossa. And then it all ends rather suddenly.
The game had a lot more potential than this I think, especially in terms of character development. But basically, you run, fight, and run some more. You DO get a ship and get to have some exciting overseas battles, which makes a lovely change.

Also, this game has no real 'save game' feature which means you will have to write down passwords in between levels. I had to redo the first eight levels of this game 4 times because I kept losing my passwords. Erf.

Well, lets see... first off, this game stinks. If you want a good game like the Pirates of the Carribean movie, look elsewhere.

No save option in game, instead you need passwords. If you think this game is like the old PC based Pirates Gold, you are wrong. This game is mission based and boring to this gamer seeking a portable Pirates Gold clone.

Cool Game

I like the game but is a little strange. There is also a strange easter egg too. Go to "continue game" and enter "L1TTLVN" to see a strange easter egg.

whoever says this is fun is really messed up

I bought this game for a long roadtrip, but was absolutly digusted in it. I though it would be fabulous because I luved the movie. But it wasn't. The only reason i gave this 2 stars was because the graphics were great. The players are slow moving, and it becaimes frustrating because the enemys move faster. Also they are hard to control. I often found myself hitting pillows and other vcarious objects around me in frustration. The levels are super easy. I returned it and got another one in hope that the game was just messed up and the charecters would move faster. HA HA they never did. it was basically a waste of money. I bought Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and found it much better
NOTE: this probaly would work really well for younger people, but i am 14 and it wasn't to my tastes

Great for kids, older buyers beware

(...) That being said it's a fun game for kids, but us mid-20 somethings were disappointed. Game play cramped our fingers more than other GB games. Also, this game is not very reminiscent of the movie. The song from the ride is reproduced well and sounds really cool, but that novelty wore off by the 4th mission. Also, it's not very convenient to write down passwords with a portable game system and the password font is hard to decipher. Still, worth it for the right price. Most GB Advance games are meant for kids, so this one has a slightly more adult edge than most.
