About This Game

You start as a pirate swinging from ropes on a ship, then you are swimming in the ocean, killing or avoiding sharks. Next, you are running up a hill jumping over or ducking under rocks. During the last level, you save the girl hanging over the large pot of boiling water from two hungry pirates.
