Welcome to the Lost Caribbean! In this stealth strategy game, join a ghost ship with a living soul and assemble a cursed pirate crew. Embrace magical powers to defy the menacing army of the Inquisition, who stands between you and the mysterious treasure of the legendary Captain Mordechai.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is an exciting new stealth strategy game set in an alternate history of the Golden Age of Piracy. The game takes place on the strange Lost Caribbean island chain, which is controlled by the ruthless soldiers of the Inquisition. The player assumes the role of a cursed pirate, Afia, and with her, you must embark on a quest to find the legendary Black Pearls to revive a cursed crew of your own.

With a crew of eight playable characters, each with unique personalities and supernatural abilities, players can launch friend or foe, cast spells, or perform split-second stealth attacks. Smartly combine these power sets to outsmart enemy forces and other pirates. The player’s objectives include epic heists and salvaging mysterious treasures of otherworldly power, all while trying to avoid the wrath of the cursed army of the Inquisition.

Onboard your ship, The Red Marley, engage in crew member missions, get to know your fellow cursed pirates, and make use of their unique skills for each mission. Exploration of the Lost Caribbean is encouraged with various exciting locales, including cursed magic sites, beautiful beaches, and lively pirate shanty towns.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew offers players the freedom to play the game in their preferred fashion. Whether players want to be stealthy or head-on, they can select crew members with the abilities that align with their style. The game also encourages players to experiment with its powerful time-manipulating magic, pausing time to consider strategic choices, queueing up multiple character actions, or even capturing memories to review and adjust tactics. With sandbox-like elements, it’s a player’s playground to discover unique solutions to each game moment.
