Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island Download PC

Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island is an adventure game about pirates developed by Autumn Moon Entertainment. Original concept and design was written by William 'Bill' Tiller, who was also responsible for the visual look of the Monkey Island game, The Curse of Monkey Island. The game was released in November 2009 in Germany, throughout the rest of Europe on February 19, 2010, and finally in the United States on August 30, 2010 by German publisher dtp entertainment.

Due to the game's tepid commercial success, Tiller has been thus far unable to secure financing for his envisioned sequel, Ghost Pirates and the Galleon of Doom. The team has nonetheless been able to crowdfund a small spinoff game, Duke Grabowski: Mighty Swashbuckler!

Gameplay

The gameplay follows standard point-and-click adventure games but with a twist. Having been cursed, the three protagonists are able to interact with the world as either themselves normally or leave their bodies and interact as ghosts. As ghosts, they are capable of moving through walls and manipulating things without being seen or heard by most characters. However, due to being ghosts, they are unfortunately unable to pass through or touch certain ghost warding barriers such as a line of salt. To pass, they thus have to find ways to clear the barriers away through other means.

Along with the ghost mechanics, each individual character is equipped with a set of skills. In relation to the curse, they are also able to communicate with each other telepathically and able to use each other's body in order to solve certain puzzles that each one alone is incapable of solving. Papa Doc is a strong "Vooju" priest and is an expert in most Vooju related areas such as reading certain hieroglyphics. Jane Starling is a nimble pirate and is an expert in most pirate techniques such as forging papers. Blue Belly is fat little pirate and is an expert in cooking and other related matters.
