Buccaneers: Shipshape Reviewed by Cyril Lachel on . It’s time to hit the high seas and punch a merman in the face in Buccaneers Shipshape, a loving reimagining of a long-forgotten arcade game from 1989. Presented in the style of a 16-bit brawler, this pirate-themed action game sends four heroes on a revenge mission. Dodging sharks, cannon balls, exploding barrels and untreatable diseases, this is a fun and engaging brawler that is not only easy to get into, but actually a blast to play. There’s just enough depth to the combat to keep things lively, and the different locations are straight out of the original game. It may not be as valuable, but I would rather spend 40 minutes playing Buccaneers Shipshape than digging up buried treasure. Rating: 71%
