Ahoy Pirates Adventure Game Play Instructions
How to Play
Use the arrow keys on move your pirate around the board to collect coins without dying.
Playing the Game
Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move around the board while avoiding enemies and collecting coins. Each level is beat when there are no coins remaining.
Dying
You are given 3 lives per game.
You die whenever an enemy touches you unless you have a power up sword.
When you die you start at the position you were in when you began that stage.
If your game is over you can restart on any of the levels you have already played.
Levels
Each level must be beat sequentially.
Your progress in this 10-level game is stored in your local web browser.
If you die you can restart the game starting on any level you have already played.
Controls
Your player keeps walking straight until he runs into something.
In the upper left corner there is a button to expand the game to full screen.
In the upper right corner there are buttons to turn sound on or off and to pause the game.
Strategy
Hard Coins
Avoid enemies and try to collect the hardest to get coins while the enemies are furthest away from those areas.
If a particular coin is in a hard to get spot (like behind spikes or down a long path with no other ways out) it can make sense to get that coin last so you do not need to cross over spikes twice and do not need to go back out the long and risky path.
If a particular part of a level is hard and you keep dying and restarting the game on that level then it can make sense to do the hardest part first so you can beat that part before doing the rest of the level.
Enemies
If enemies are near try to ensure you have at least 2 escape paths available.
After you run over a sword you will be invincible for a period of time. The transition from invincible to not is quite sudden, so it is not good to get too greedy while chasing down enemies.
You can intentionally have your character go down a path you do not want in order to turn around and pause in position facing a wall.
Your character moves faster than your enemies, so you can squeeze through some tight fits you probably would not try in a game like Pac Man.
You can kill nearby enemies by running into TNT, but if you do not run away quickly you can also kill yourself in the process.
Scoring
Each enemy you kill is worth 200 points. If you kill multiple enemies in a row it keeps doubling to where you go from 200 to 400 to 800 to 1600.
Your score is maintained across levels so long as you are still on the same game play.
Your high score is stored in your local web browser.

This high seas-themed adventure puts you in the shoes of a greedy pirate. Collect all the coins in the island while avoiding the naval officers. To turn the tables on the navy, collect swords. You clear the level when you’ve collected all the remaining coins. The collection aspect and gameplay mechanics resemble an upgraded version of Pac-Man. But that’s where the resemblance ends.
Besides the theme, a few other details set it apart. There is a greater distance between each of the coins. It takes a while to collect all the coins. You also have fewer powerups on hand. Make them count. Moreover, you also must contend with obstacles like thorns and gunpowder barrels.
