RELEASE NOTES

A 3D adventure game set in the 17th century Caribbean, Buccaneer offers
high-seas combat, land combat, and elements of resource management.
Players can choose a "cut-to-the-chase" combat-only option or immerse
themselves in the wide-open world of the buccaneers by choosing the
campaign option!

Combat is fast and furious. Fight ship-to-ship and board the enemy for
desperate hand-to-hand action. The goal in combat-only mode is to sink
the enemy without getting killed in the process! Ship-to-ship combat is
always in real-time 3D and can be played with up to four players via the
Internet, modem or serial connection.

Campaigns present the buccaneer's life in more depth. Players choose
from 6 storylines and set out on a career that will hopefully end in
amnesty and/or a wealthy retirement! Along the way, players must obtain
bigger and better ships, keep crews happy (and loyal!) and complete
individual missions. Fighting and negotiating one's way to the top
involves maneuvering through 21 territories in the Caribbean. Capturing
enemy ships. Plundering ports and towns. And living to tell of it all!

Features:

-Detailed campaign world includes a travel map of the Caribbean and six
different storylines.
-Real-time 3D ship-to-ship/ship-to-fort combat.
-Fully rendered 3D game environment with a realistic sailing model
utilizing DirectX acceleration.
-Outstanding graphics, museum quality art, accurate sound effects and
stirring music make Buccaneer a truly engrossing adventure.
