This is your guide to sailing the seas of PirateRealm, a monorail destination available after using a PirateRealm membership packet.

Overview

Once per day, you can make a journey through PirateRealm. You start at Port Beginning, where you select one crewmate, one curio, and a ship for the day's journey. You then choose from a selection of island destinations and progress through several sailing adventures to get there. The first island consists of 4 fights and a final adventure that may be a reward or boss fight. The sequence of sailing and island adventures repeats for second and third island destinations, although the third island contains 9 fights before a final reward adventure or boss.

You must wear a PirateRealm eyepatch (provided) which limits your base stats to 20, and your buffed stats must not be higher than 100.

There are 6 stats to keep track of while Sailing the PirateRealm Seas:

• Guns determine your chances of winning fights against other ships and sea serpents. Can be bought from the shops or retrieved from defeated civilian ships, sometimes.
• Grub and Grog are spent at the end of every Sailing adventure. Can be gained and lost in various ways, such as found on other ships, bought, accidentally dropped or used to calm the crew. Running out of one of them forces you to spend an adventure looking for some. Running out of both simultaneously simply gives the scavenging adventures back to back.
• Glue is needed to repair your ship if it gets damaged from losing against another ship, a sea serpent or failing to outrun a storm. Not having glue to use forces you to waste an adventure waiting for help, only giving 1 Fun.
• Gold is used to buy other resources from the occasional shop ships, or to calm the crew. Found from shipwrecks, winning against other pirates, and in various ways, depending on your Curio, Crewmate and island of choice.
• FunPoints are gained at every adventure and are spent by using the Quest item PirateRealm Fun-a-Log; they don't disappear at rollover or ascension.

Preparations

Each journey starts with your selection of one crewmate, one curio, and a ship for the day's journey.
