    Have you ever wanted to command a ship, control the sails, and discover exotic islands filled with treasure? This game has all of that and more! This can be played solo or with a crew. It's a 1 of a kind game and it creates RARE experiences, must buy!

    This game has blown me away with the unique play style it has to offer. It is not a rehashed game that we usually get, but is truly unique in its play style. Hoping more content comes out for it. But easily one of the most fun times I've had playing.

    This game was repetitive and the players i paired up with were not helpful. If you enjoy sailing the high seas with little instruction and people that will dump you for not being a seasoned vet then this is the game for you. This game isn't for the casual adult gamer.

    Bought this for my son. Loves all the x box games. He can play this one with his frinds and ordering on line and getting the on line code made it faster fir him to play. Highly recommend this way of purchasing.

      Ahoy there,

      Sea of Thieves sounds like a great gift for your son! Thank you for recommending purchasing it digitally (did you know that it's a Xbox Play Anywhere game that can also be played on Windows 10 PC?), and we're glad that he's enjoying playing it online with friends. We hope he has a lot of fun with it.

    This game is alright. I had hopes of it being better after the beta but it wasn't. Ended up trading it back in after about 3 weeks. i just don't have time for the grind of the game. And you are forced to play with others and my online friends were smart enough not to get it in the first place. Just didn't do it for me.
