Played the C64 version at my buddy’s a lot, and eventually played “Pirates! Gold” a ton on my AMD K6 200mhz.

There was a lot of gameplay depth there for a game that originally came out in 1987, and it informs more of my knowledge of Caribbean geography than it really should.

"Pirates! Gold" brings back some nostalgia. A friend of mine had the Sega channel when I was in middle school and that was one of the offerings one month. We stayed up into the wee hours of the morning playing that game for hours. Sword fighting and searching for buried treasure. Those were some good memories.

Same!!! We stayed up all night playing this game non-stop over the summer in Sega. We would play Mario Cart until our fingers hurt and then switch to Sega and chill for the rest of the night.

Played that so much on an Amiga CD32 as a kid.
