Arrr! Yer sailin' the glimmerin' waters of the Caribbean, when outta nowhere, ye be ambushed by a band of fearsome ghost pirates! They toss ye into the dark, damp brig, shackled like a dog, awaitin' the dreadful sentence that'll seal yer fate. But somethin' ain't right... the ship be eerily silent, and the crew? Vanished like a puff of cannon smoke!
Yer heart pounds, knowin' ye’ve got 'til sundown before the stars light the sky and yer doom is set in stone. Ye must escape or be cursed forevermore! The ship's secrets be all around ye—rum stashed in the captain’s quarters, maps hidden below decks, and cannons ready to roar.
Search the ship high 'n low, follow the clues, and when the time is ripe... UNLEASH the cannons! Blast yer way free and break the curse, or be lost to the depths forever.
Now get to it, ye scurvy dog! The sun be sinkin’, and the curse is drawin’ near... fire the cannons, or face oblivion!
