This game could be called a lot of things but scary is a stretch. Yet my last play was nothing but horrific to say the least.
I was doing a merchant voyage and it had me get four snakes. This was something I was waiting to test!
I always thought it could be a good strategy to keep a bunch of snakes in my hold while I play solo as it would make a natural defense against some a boarder.
So I went and put my snakes about in my hold, spreading them out to make sure a foe couldn't skirt them.
Now I felt pretty good about going and getting more loot, I would play music to get my look into my hold and be on my way.
As I was letting the wind take me where ever it wanted I ended up at a island that unfortunately had skeleton cannons on it.... in fact all over it.
As I got close the cannon beat on my ship blowing holes in the hold making me have to abandon the helm and subject myself to the horror that I created to same myself and my ship.
I had turned off all the lights in the hold to make boarders have a harder time seeing what was going on down there. So I didn't have time to turn them back on.
I raced down under into the knee deep water in the nearly pitch blackness desperately looking for the holes... the snakes struck.
I was being bit all over and blinded even more, not being able to see and now seeing the water nearly over my head I just had to keep working as I was bit over and over in the darkness. The ship slammed into the island and made more holes and I had to fix those as well.
I crushed banana after banana into my face hole to try and stem the poison but it was a balance between that and fixing the ship.
When it was all said and done I had nearly sunk but saved my ship and even the ungrateful snakes. But it was by far the most horrific thing I have had to do in this game thus far.
