Timecrafters: The Treasure of Pirate's Cove

Some swordfights and a few punches. No hits landing or swords slicing or stabbing are shown. No blood or gore. Some cartoon violence, like a chandelier landing on a villain, knocking him out. A couple of sea battles with cannon fire. A few dark, creepy locations with slightly eerie music and a skeleton in a cage. Characters are in danger from drowning and being captured. A flashback shows a man being pushed off a ship's plank.

A couple are seen giggling and embracing. Brief depictions of romantic interest between adults.

"Dammit" and "diddlypoop."

An empty bottle rolls across a ship's deck. An adult drinks once from a wine glass. Characters assume some adults asleep on the beach passed out from drinking, but they were actually washed ashore. A negative character holds and chomps an unlit cigar.

Parents need to know that Timecrafters: The Treasure of Pirate's Cove is the first in a planned time-traveling series. There are pirates, swashbuckling, and treasure hunting, but the violence is cartoonish. Punches and swords are never shown landing, and there's no blood or gore. There are a few spooky atmospheres and a skeleton in a cage. A couple giggles and briefly caresses a couple of times. Strong language is one use of "dammit" and a couple of "diddlypoop." Twinkies feature prominently in a few shots. Alcohol use is implied by a rolling bottle and assuming some adults passed out from drinking (they didn't), and one sip from a wine glass. A negative character holds and chomps a large cigar. Parental loss is a theme from a modern-day father lost at sea and in the past a boy watches as his father is pushed from a ship's plank. The supporting cast is diverse but main characters are all White. There's also some stereotyping in the nerdy Asian kid, the fat kid who's always eating, and the girl who's really into social media.
