It's 1798 during the Napoleonic wars. Keep your Admiral's hat on and you can rule the seven seas!
You start off with nothing more than yourself and 15,000 gold coins that you looted/ kindly donated by the king. You can buy ships, sailors, weapons and other items to ensure you build up your armada while avoiding Davey Jones' Locker.
You are an Admiral of a fleet of ships ... well one ship to begin with ;) and your sole aim is to build a large armada of ships, destroying or boarding other ships around the ocean and increase your overall Points Score. You can attack both computer (CPU) and other player ships by firing cannons or attempting to board their vessel and take it over to add it to your fleet.
But be careful as you are given a limited amount of gold to begin with and cannon balls and crew aren't cheap so you can sell off ships and their crew and cargo at different trading port islands to build up a stronger ship.
