With a dwindling player base and graphics built for ancient monitors, Puzzle Pirates is showing its age. Nonetheless, the puzzles are timelessly satisfying and the modes of play remain entirely unique for an MMO, even all this time later.

There's still nothing else in the medium close to Puzzle Pirates.
