'Buccaneer's Bounty' Bundle Announced

by Rainier on Feb. 1, 2006 @ 2:54 p.m. PST

Cinemaware Marquee today announced Buccaneer’s Bounty, a compilation of three top-rated pirate-themed strategy games – Port Royale 2, Tortuga and Patrician III. The complete package delivers more than 100 hours of deep, engaging gameplay for only $19.99.

“Our goal at Cinemaware Marquee is to release epic, top quality games from all over the world, and Buccaneer’s Bounty delivers on every level,” said Lars Batista, Vice President of Development for eGames. “For RTS fans, this compilation of three top notch games will be the best gaming value you can get.”

Port Royale 2 is an all-encompassing RTS trading adventure set in the 16th and 17th centuries. The game immerses gamers in the historic rivalry between pirates and buccaneers. As a pirate or trader, players embark on a journey through the Caribbean “New World” where they must establish their reputation, build plantations and construct trade routes throughout 60 villages.

Experience the huge world of Tortuga with its 16 unique scenarios, either as a buccaneer in the service of his majesty the King, or as a feared and loathsome pirate. Riches will increase beyond players’ wildest dreams through successful missions, looting, theft of ships, and plundering of towns. In this game, much more than ruthlessness is needed to succeed - treachery and mutiny can reduce all efforts to nothing, or even worse a shameful and early death!

Patrician III is a real-time trading simulation featuring medieval city-building and the historical background of maritime trade in Northern Europe in the 1300’s. As a resident of a medieval town, your goal is to rise from the status of a simple, insignificant trader to that of a Patrician. Players raise their standing through town improvements and diplomacy or fill their coffers through piracy and smuggling.
