Game Play:


This really isn't a game, it is a visual novel and there is no way the player can lose since there is no bad ending.  It is structured like a choose your own ending kind of book where there is a set storyline and along the way choices are presented to the player.  The game begins with a prologue then the player is led to a 'choose a route' menu in which the player picks a guy and continues with the story.  Depending on the choices picked in the character route, the ending could be a "Happy Ending" or a "Super Happy Ending."  If the player registered their email then the character will send the player an e-mail at the end of each chapter.

Personal Review:

Review-

Pros:
wonderful characters, cute storylines, music goes well with the story

Cons:

not fully supported on all apple devices other than iPhone, manner of speech, epilogues seem incomplete, minimal interactivity

Before I start my review I would like to state that Voltage couldn't have made it anymore clear to their customers that this game is only fully supported on the iPhone for Apple devices.  That being said, I downloaded it for my 3rd generation iPod touch anyway when the game first came out and not without consequences.  The first time I ran into a bug was when I tried to download a second character and the app crashed every single time.  I somehow fixed it by wiping my whole iPod and upgrading the iOS to the most recent one at the time.  I was able to download all six routes with no problem but when the epilogue came out for Russell, the epilogue could not be accessed on my iPod. The game just kept looping back to menu.  I suspect I just need to wipe and upgrade my iOS again but since I have an Android I just didn't bother.  For anyone willing to try it or have tried it, please tell me how it turned out.

On to the review...

Pirates in Love was Voltage's first otome game to be available in English and is essentially one of the earliest translated otome games to enter the market state-side.  Recently however, this genre of games have become more and more prevalent, particularly on Android and Apple platforms.  When the game first came out it was riddled with bugs and I really couldn't stand the character's manner of speech which wasn't very pirate-like.  Instead the choice of speech seemed more like modern slang.  However, after several updates, most of the bugs I can remember from the earlier releases have been fixed except for one glaring problem with the looping back to the menu of the epilogue for non-iPhone Apple devices which again Voltage has stated several times it does not support and it's a download at your own peril type of deal. Not that I agree with it necessarily but just take it as 'you have been warned.'  There are also some glitches with the e-mailing system.  More likely than not you will probably not get most of the e-mails that are supposed to be received from your route.  For the most part though the interface for both Android and Apple seem rather stable, although, I can't help but notice that the interface for Android looks slightly nicer than the one for iPhone though.

The characters in this game are interesting enough with top-notch artwork to portray them.  Will you go for the childish and easily jealous Russell? The cool and calm Eduardo? A nice, older brother-like Christopher? Quiet and serious Nathan? Innocent Thomas? Or the mysterious Captain Morgan? There is a character for every taste. I personally found some of the routes a bit dull which is the only reason I gave it four hearts instead of five, but it may have just been my personal preference.  Aside from the main guys there are other interesting side characters as the story progresses further and I wouldn't mind if they added routes for those characters later too, particularly Alan.

Since this was the first translated otome game from Voltage, the company actually did a bit of localization as well, particularly with the appearance of Christoper whos original character actually had black hair and pale skin (Asian looking).  Eduardo's hairstyle was changed as well, which personally, I liked his new style more than the old.  If you want to see what the Japanese version looks like, click here.

Overall, I was pleased with Pirates in Love enough that when I heard My Forged Wedding came out (also by Voltage) I immediately downloaded it.

I've been waiting for Alan lol but I would rather download it for my iPod than for the Android~ Keep all of my main stories in one place.  I hope it comes out soon for iOS.

Dear Lord, Thomas and Alan are tied! Also, Thomas's Field Day story had me slightly possessive. Pretty much started a catfight. And its adorable how much of a crush Thomas has on you in Alan's route!!!   :pirate:

Hi, Does anyone have a problems after the recent update? (For andriod users)  Like can't open the apps...  

I'm such a baka for reinstall it, and now probably will lost my data for that.  (I dunno about the restore purchase for andriod 4.0.3, but so far I didn't see any button for that since the day I install the app...)  

Even if I recover my data, will I still be able to get the CGs back?  Right now Voltage doesn't even give a damm on replying my email and i'm terrified that all of my purchases will be gone just like that, and worst I spent a lot of money on that app the most.  T__T

I have a S3 4.0.4 and it's working fine with the new update.  Your purchases should still be there. I've switched phones and restored my purchases with no charge. You just need to re-download them again.  At least that's what I remember. If they do charge you just contact google play and probably will need the receipt they sent out of your initial purchase. If they do charge you it should be their blunder. You will however have to replay the routes to get your CGs back.
