A lighthearted puzzle game where you slide matching items in colorful pirate-themed levels, gradually increasing in challenge.

What players say
Players describe it as a sliding puzzle where you match two identical items to clear them, not a match-3. Each of the 100 levels adds new mechanics like portals, arrows, and dynamite. Some players want a move counter or leaderboard to gauge performance. A few note the Linux version has bugs.
