Sea Dogs online
Our game is based on unique 'Storm' engine - independently developed by our programmers. This engine supports to 1,000 objects in the same time. That means that our engine will support from 100 to 200 gamers per server. Sea Dogs online version is extremely updateable - it is based on advanced plug-in-like technology, so all of game components are replaceable. Player who downloaded 20Mb of basic set will receive 12 ship types and 100 game zones with 10 islands. All of those are high-polygonal models, precisely textured. But if player wants more, he can download more gaming zones anytime and share the fun of Sea Dogs with all the players, who did the same.

Between the devil and the deep blue sea.
In 1499, Don Alonzo Ojeda de Quena discovered a new archipelago in the very middle of Atlantic. He marked this land on his map and added it to Spanish colonial possessions. But France and England had their own point of view on this matter. After 100 years, when Spaniards found that this land has riches beyond imagination, empires started the undeclared war. Player is engaged into this war from the beginning of the game. He is a young corsair, so ransacking other ships is his duty. There are no missions he MUST undertake - the purpose of the game is to capture all the islands, and all the ways to victory are good enough. But he may find that there are secret ways - mostly like bargaining with Devil. Pirates are strong in this land - they captured a whole island and made it their own colony. Player may try to use their power to win - or join them and bring the whole Archipelago to be a new country. There are some rumours about witch doctors among native Indian tribes who live on those islands. Superstitions, you say? Maybe. If you think so, a sudden tornado under bright sky will sure change your mind. So, you are free to steer your ship. Fair wind!
