Golden age pirates: murderous villains or freedom fighters? It's the latter view that French studio Savage Level hopes to express with its first game, a tactical RPG that stars Captain Flint, the fictional pirate whose buried treasure is sought after in Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island.
"This game gives us the possibility of informing the general public about what piracy really was, often portrayed in a caricatured and wrong way," says the studio, which itself was inspired by pirates according to co-founder Maxime Josse, who created the company with brother Aurélien.
