As I said, I cannot record on the XP-machine, so I installed a virtual machine XP on my Win7 notebook. The route showcased in the video below (and described by the comments following the video) made a PB of 1:22. The game runs quite consistently there, but I can't record it. I play on a very old notebook with XP on it. Would this count as 'beating the game' in a SDA-sense?Įdit: Since so far nobody has responded (maybe there is no interest, but it might just be that nobody knows/remembers the game) I took the liberty and scouted for what at first glance looks like the fastest route to end the game, though it is the worst of the possible endings (can one call this 'beating' the game?) When the player has collected enough money so every crew member gets a fair share (at least 500 bucks a person), one can retire, effectively ending the game (One can choose to start over with a new ship and a new crew or retire for good, the latter of course would be the actual ending). One starts out with a ship and some crew members and then has to collect money by trade or acts of piracy. I am a bit unsure about the technicalities though, so I thought I'd ask. Does anybody remember this rather unknown little gem from 1999? When it came out I had quite the fun playing it and so I thought I'd test it as speed running material.
