I think it's the only pirate game where you show off your skills and your dance moves. To win over the governor’s daughters, you need to prove how good a dancer you are when they invite you to the ball. Kidding, of course—that’s not the game’s main selling point. But trust me: if this game ever gets a well-deserved remake crafted with love and passion, I can confidently say it would surpass Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Sea of Thieves.

Even as it stands (without a remake), Sid Meier's Pirates! remains a classic and a must-play. You can’t call yourself a pirate if you haven’t experienced everything this game has to offer.

It’s absolutely fantastic and probably the most complex pirate game out there. And yes, I know it’s from 2004—it’s already 20 years old, but that says a lot. I highly recommend it: 10/10.
