Concrete Software just let me know that they have released Sid Meier’s Pirates for BlackBerry. I actually had a chance to play with the pre-release version and was impressed. The game is also compatible with the Storm so everybody can get in on a little gaming action. There is a demo available at the download pages but sadly looks like its desktop install only.
They have a coupon going now on their site which gets you 20% off by using the code SAVING20. If you pick up the game let us know what you think.
From the product description:
Ahoy matey! Live the life and career of a pirate in Sid Meier’s Pirates! Use strategy and skill to build attributes in sword fighting, cash, and even ship battles. Challenges are around every corner, be ye ready to surrender?

Has anybody tried this? Is it worth a desktop install? I rarely connect my BB to the desktop.
