BERLIN: With their cannons, swords and big ships, pirates are not to be underestimated on the high seas. But the fact that they can also be a danger on land is shown in the strategy game "Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew." Players find themselves on a ghost ship with a supernatural crew of cursed pirates. On a nearby group of islands, a dangerous horde of undead is up to no good and is also hiding a powerful treasure.

Without further ado, you put together a search party and enter the well-guarded enemy realm.
