Republic of Pirates features three gameplay modes that cater to a range of playstyles and skill levels. Campaign mode is a great starting point, featuring story missions that teach the core mechanics against the backdrop of an epic vengeance-fuelled narrative. Free play mode includes four bespoke maps with unique characteristics where settlement growth is tied to population size, allowing for a less prescriptive experience. Lastly, the custom map editor offers a powerful set of tools for creating custom maps, where everything from island count to rival faction behaviour can be tweaked, including sandbox options for casual play!
