Discord based games are not new to us, Hiveans/Hivers. **A Pirate Saga** is the third Discord based game we have on Hive. ![A Pirate Saga Tutorial 1.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/AKZmwsF2T9a5B4hRekUUv1zTBCgHYCN5ybdj8HPDumwTtYJTcoekffTLTgvVfJZ.jpg) First game we, Hiveans, who migrated from the previous blockchain, played was **dCity**. Second one is **Serfdom & Sorcery**. Though, it can be said the first one in the sense that it's initiated/started/developed on the Hive Blockchain. And, now, **A Pirate Saga** is the third one. *I am not aware of any other Discord based games associated with Hive Blockchain, if there are then do share them in the comments.* I am playing all three of above mentioned games and, no doubt, they are addictive. This isn't the only quality they have, though. If someone says to me for the comparison among them then it's like comparing Mango with Peanuts, Pizza with Spaghetti or French fries with Samosa - they all are the best in their own category/genre. ##### A Pirate Saga > "A Pirate Saga" is an epic and immersive blockchain-based pirate adventure game that takes players on a swashbuckling journey through treacherous seas, hidden coves, and ancient maps in search of fame, fortune, and the ultimate pirate legacy. Players are transported back to the Golden Age of Piracy, a time of lawless seas, hidden treasures, and daring escapades. Players step into the boots of a daring pirate captain and embark on a high-stakes quest for the greatest treasure the Seven Seas have ever known. > A Pirate Saga combines the excitement of blockchain technology, NFTs, and strategic gameplay to create an engaging pirate adventure. Players can set sail, collect ships, unlock legendary pirate ranks, and compete on leaderboards to become the ultimate Pirate Legend in this immersive and ever-expanding pirate world. ^{[Source: A Pirate Saga Adds Quests, Leaderboard Payouts and More!!](https://peakd.com/hive-140217/@thorlock/a-pirate-saga-adds-quests-leaderboard-payouts-and-more)} > Do you want to give **A Pirate Saga** a try?

You'll either get 5 LOOT or 10 LOOT or 50 LOOT tokens. The normal cooldown for this command is 5 minutes. You could get a 30 minutes cooldown once a while, though. ![setsail 0.1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23yJX3WbuEpAFHMsfr6HGFSdkMkV9qBp6twPMMc9qLbHPYQBCoX2C3qQtcnUq2wkXCB3G.png) So, in normal cases, you can run **!setsail** command every 5 minutes. --- **!fightmonster** or **!takethehelm** or **!smugglerun** or **!findhealings** These are the same commands for different classes. - !fightmonster for Fighters - !takethehelm for Navigators - !smugglerun for Scavengers - !findhealings for Healers ![!fightmonster or !takethehelm or !smugglerun or !findhealings.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23zbekCpknuLoie84dyx9NrcqPXPnywsDs94gv8xVRj3BWxJ75BfmV9BWpRkzgC5oVj7X.png) As you can see in the image above... - **!fightmonster** (Fighter Class) and **!findhealings** (Healer Class) **reward** the players either with **LOOT tokens** or with **Wood**. - **!smugglerun** (Scavenger Class) **rewards** players either with **LOOT tokens** or with **Chest**. - **!takethehelm** (Navigator Class) **rewards** the players either with **LOOT tokens** or with **Wood** or with **Chest**. You can run this command every 60 minutes. --- **!quest** This is a common command that can be run by all classes in #quest channel and earn you LOOT tokens. ![quest.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/EnWLPFc242nMmZa22aNqDZyu3naSHMuaU8H2PFZMghXaoGmg3zkNRQbuJ4NDXaTGNhP.png) In above image quest was ended in just two steps, most of the time it runs a little longer, giving you YES and NO options, choose wisely. **Cooldown** for **!quest** command is **15 minutes**. ![Line Seperator-3.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23x1aKK7WaUfhzmGsMGMeoiZfoxPJFxmukk7FW4sVnXuR5txjCraTatN6Q5DPQENVmQsh.png) #### Other Commands **!buychest** One thing that will accelerate your in-game progress and earning is buying and opening the chests. HOW? We'll come to it a bit later. !buychest or !buychest 1 will buy you one chest. !buychest 2 will buy you 2 chests. !buychest 3 will buy you 3 chests, and so on... ![!buychest.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/48VFY7JEGhMzn5sYQAFBuSzT27qRA8Q81kGa1Y18y2NhjXsgCrtCUFimZ3LSqTVv6G.png) One chest cost 500 LOOT tokens. With 2500 LOOT tokens, you were given at the time of registration, you can buy 5 chests if you want to. --- **!openchest** Just like !buychest command, !openchest or !openchest 1 command open one chest for you. !openchest 2 will open 2 chests. !openchest 3 will open 3 chests. ![!openchest.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/EpT4hWgr3SrDLDByToNUHxvMFtqeGsqpo4SrPoy2NdcrbcRC2cyWLTwbTovXQdiKx5b.png) Maximum 10 chests can be opened with a single command. --- **!repairship** As mentioned above, normal cooldown for !setsail is 5 minutes but, now and then, you can get a 30 minutes cooldown, and if you don't want to wait for 30 minutes then use this command. You can immediately use !setsail command after running !repairship. ![!repairship.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/244eAJJhnLFaxHB8jwCduEXnB7X3iRHvnkA8qwVe8xsp6biEWmhrMHNhrDsPegUhuzL61.png) !repairship costs you 25 LOOT tokens every time you run it. --- **!upgradeship & !barrelman commands** **!upgradeship** command is used to upgrade the ship for using **!barrelman** command. ![!upgradeship & !barrelman commands 1.1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23z7ST2Zp3WMm6yuhmYKnXj8prfpMqSdrJRx2LFJdDXWn2c9CYyuFfygrXquf2JgKdzGS.png) **!upgradeship** requires **25 woods** to work. **!upgradeship** will further be upgraded in the near future which will require wood and steel and will give the ship new abilities in finding other materials et cetera. To acquire steel you need to run **!barrelman** command. Once you upgraded your ship, you can run **!barrelman** command. ![!upgradeship & !barrelman commands 1.2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23tGbvmJ2NDdDDNH74xysQEEFT8vmbEuzEBrSBwiEaHznHa52NCLvYs6qyoLjMBiwtZ7H.png) You can run **!barrelman** command **every 6 hours**. --- **!stats** You can check your in game stats with this command. It shows number of LOOT tokens your account has, your role, time remaining to call !setsail command, number of Chests, NFTs, Wood, Iron and your Pirate Experience. ![!stats.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23tbMTvavDcjLee2wnSjeD7BL3h3K8QKwCh7rncBQUS58SGzjRA9ieCt6CJ4JKrmyEPJh.png) ^{**Pirate Experience:** You daily get 300 Pirate Experience by running !setsail and role-specific (!fightmonster/!takethehelm/!findhealings/!smugglerun) commands.} --- **!help** This is the command that provides you with the list of all available commands. ![!help.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/Eo44q93V582zVQvjXAJZQDEZhsP6UD5WtpWY9Gps8tvo8PTAR2LfxqcpPkCCmkJVxRz.png) ![Line Seperator-3.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23x1aKK7WaUfhzmGsMGMeoiZfoxPJFxmukk7FW4sVnXuR5txjCraTatN6Q5DPQENVmQsh.png) #### Leaderboard Leaderboard has its own perks. Currently, A Pirate Saga is daily paying top 25 players on the Leaderboard with LOOT tokens to their Hive Engine wallet and have also started to give Chests to them **(Rank 1: 3 chests - Rank 2 and 3: 2 chests daily - Rank 4 and 5: 1 Chest daily)**. ![Leaderboard Payout 1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/23tRxbURNrC5kGQvdfJBcpotxiKbL7mUWwRBj53iyQP2JwTbBMpksiCyAxrX1oAndoYPC.png) Leaderboard position is determined by how many NFTs a player has. Owning NFTs not only gives a player a place in the Leaderboard but it also add LOOT tokens to !setsail and !fightmonster (or other commands of different classes) rewards. 5% additional rewards for every 10 NFTs a player holds to be exact. For example, I have 90 NFTs and getting 7.25 LOOT, 14.5 LOOT and 72.5 LOOT tokens from !setsail command instead of getting 5, 10 and 50 LOOT tokens respectively. ![!setsail mobi72 f.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/244UsoBTcgYCXs9wJUtWKXmtuW5fyCF8qQtbRsaedDeBwuB5FMTkAHJuZodgHzSFfPvLa.png) Similarly, I am getting 45% additional LOOT tokens reward from !fightmonster command. ![Line Seperator-4.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mobi72/EowNPiUwvBhAhBH85iVkxuno6t1q5tWqKaBTW8PuDYzSuX19PnooWcV6XjC5uwX4t56.png) ##### HAVE FUN PLAYING AND EARNING. ^{Access the game here 👉[A Pirate Saga^Discord](https://discord.gg/xrFVuRcMjS)}
