One-button sailing · Cartoon

Reef Runner

Your pirate ship always sails forward. Keep her afloat between the storm clouds and the sandbars, scoop up treasure and powder kegs, and sink the King's navy with your bow cannon.

  • Tap to sail, hold to keep the cannon firing.
  • Six areas to sail through: storms, fog, ghost ships, fire ships and more.
  • HMS Invincible waits at the Admiral's Blockade with a wall of shot.

Run-and-gun · Pixel art

Jolly Rogue

A pirate on foot with a blade and a pistol, fighting across Palm Tree Island, a merchant ship, the hold and a pirate ship. Grab bigger guns along the way and spend your gold in the Black Market after every boss.

  • Run, double-jump and shoot in eight directions.
  • Twenty levels and twenty bosses: swing mast to mast, vine to vine and ship to ship, from jungle ruins and a ghost ship to the King's flagship.
  • Dress your captain or she-captain in the Captain's Quarters.

Airship shooter · Painted steampunk NEW

Cloud Dancer: Beyond the Reef

Take a pirate airship into the sky. Fly anywhere, ram with FULL STEAM, and bring down HMS Thunderer, the Tempest Engine, Fort Sovereign and the Brass Kraken.

  • Drag anywhere to steer; the cannons fire on their own.
  • Duck into a cloud and the King's Aerial Navy loses its aim.
  • Nine skies with a boss at the end of each, checkpoints to start from, and a Hangar to paint your airship and sign on a parrot.
