Ahoy, me hearties! Welcome aboard this treacherous voyage through the high seas, where danger and adventure await at every turn. Hoist the flag, and let the pirate's life embrace ye!
- Note - Keep in mind this game is new and everything is subject to change. We want a fun game first and foremost and that's what we're trying to achieve.
Just Added
Guys we just added an experience mechanic. There's never been a better time to start playing. You can now earn up to 300 experience points per day! The main sestsail command produces 10 experience up to 10 times per day and your role-specific command produces 20 experience per day up to 10 uses per day. This has several benefits:
- It keeps a whale from coming into the game and being about to catch up immediately.
- It incentivizes more playing
- It provides another benefit to early players
- Experience will be required on all future ship upgrades
Recent
- leaderboard payouts
- earnings multiplier based on NFT's held ingame
- quests
We just today added leaderboard payout rewards. Rewards are paid out based on how many ingame NFT's you hold. The entire top 25 will receive a daily payout. The current payout is 5,000 LOOT coins paid out as follows:
| Position | % Payout | Actual |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 18% | 900 LOOT |
| 2 | 13% | 650 LOOT |
| 3 | 9% | 450 LOOT |
| 4-8 | 5% | 250 LOOT |
| 9-14 | 3% | 150 LOOT |
| 15-20 | 2% | 100 LOOT |
| 21-25 | 1% | 50 LOOT |
Keep in mind, this is just a start. We plan to add chests in leaderboard payouts next week. We also plan to be able to increase leaderboard payouts as we add more players. All the hive we've received for signups and LOOT coins bought on hive-engine is currently kept/invested to support the leaderboard rewards. We want them to be sustainable and to increase.
Also we added a !quest command recently and have fixed most all of the bugs. There's thousands of possible outcomes. We also plan to add more outcomes and many other options for answer that will influence the quest.
Here's an example of a quest:
With the bustling port in sight, your pirate crew eagerly anticipates restocking on food and supplies, ready to prepare for their next daring adventure on the high seas.. Do you wish to restock and continue exploring? yes or no?
answer: yes
As your lookout peers through the spyglass, their heart sinks at the sight of an ominous silhouette on the horizon - a rival ship, it’s black flag billowing in the wind. Hostile intent is clear. Do you ready your weapons for a dangerous encounter? Do you attack? Yes or no? Yes
answer: yes
You swiftly board their decks and engage in a fierce battle. Victory is yours and you take a prisoner to work on your ship. Receive 1 NFT. Your quest has ended.
Earnings Multiplier
So every 10 NFT's you hold, you currently earn a 5% bonus with your setsail command as well as your role-specific commands. So 100 ingame NFT's is currently a 50% earnings bonus.

Where and How Can You Play?
Currently the game is only playable on the DRIP discord server.
You need a hive account. You will issue the !register command , the bot will give you instructions and after sending the 5 swap.hive activation fee, you can issue !activate to start playing. You are also given 2500 coins to start with unless you have a DRIP Challenger role for staking 1000 DRIP, in that case you start with 5,000 LOOT coins. You can then play as much as you like for free and start earning LOOT, chests, materials, NFT's.
What Is LOOT?
Coins or "LOOT" can also be purchased and deposited into the game from hive-engine (https://tribaldex.com/trade/LOOT). Each LOOT token is listed for .001 Hive and it costs 500 to purchase a chest ingame. Chests can contain more LOOT coins, Wood, NFT's. There's a limited number currently on Hive-Engine. Withdraws will be available soon as well to send coins from ingame to hive-engine.
What is NFT & Wood?
The NFT represents an actual NFT. We plan to have packs of nft's eventually of pirates with varying rarity. These pirates will give you an associated Pirate Power. Currently each NFT represents a pirate NFT and will be exchangeable 3:1 for packs of 3 once available.
Wood is a rare resource and you'll need it soon to upgrade your ship, stay tuned!
Much, Much, more to come!
