Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The gameplay seems simple, yes, but it gets progressively gets increasingly complex the more you play it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Graphics are fine and runs well enough.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Game isn't too hard because it relies so much on luck, and getting XP on losses means you'll eventually unlock everything, including unbeatable combos like Misfire/Parry or Plunderer/Davy Jones' Locker, etc.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
There's a quasi rip-off of the Pirates of the Caribbean score used in the main menu (at least it's longer than the very similarly PotC-themed single track from Clicker Heroes), and a more ambient song used during games.
