Rip Off

It seems that you cam only go so far in the beginning until you get to a point where in order to progress in the game, you have to pay.

Money shouldn't be an issue

I know many parents (and even some kids) are concerned about how much it costs them, but they needn't worry. If you visit KingsIsle's website: FreeKI Games (https://www.freekigames.com/) you can log in with your Pirate101 account and earn crowns by doing trivia. Getting a 75%+ score will earn you 10 non-transferable crowns, and you can do 10 of them for crowns a day. I believe this is a great way to teach kids to budget and earn their own. And they may also learn some interesting facts along the way!

Boring

You first join you start to explore new places and fight. But after a month its just boring because there's nothing else to do.

It's better than imvu

I've played this game for a year and 1/2 and I'm 18 this is a game you should let your kids play if you check to see what they are up to.

Poor quality and design

This is basically the wizard101 game but with pirates. It's designed specifically so that you will not advance without spending additional money and doesn't reward your child for actually playing the game itself. I strongly recommend not giving them your credit card because I did and was still charged 2 additional times even after canceling my child's subscription.

Awesome Game with fantastic worlds, amazing characters, and a great story line!

Extremely fun game! Adventure, magic, ninjas, western, eastern, mythology, steam punk, and more all rolled up in a brilliant pirate adventure! 11, 11, 14, plus to grown ups play this at my house regularly and greatly enjoy the game. I understand the kid reviews on here (a lot of kids get mad when they can't win easily). The game is brilliant and free to play up to about level ten.
