Point-and-Click Black Sails-The Ghost Ship to Frighten North Americans September 17

Just like visual novels, point-and-click adventures are making a comeback, even going so far as to become great successes. Take, for example, the award-winning, Deck 13-developed horror adventure Black Sails-The Ghost Ship. Due to its popularity in Germany, the title is now sailing onto Steam for North Americans to savor.

Enjoyed by many German fans, Black Sails aims to immerse players in a story that blurs the lines between fact and fiction, featuring two survivors--lost at sea--who encounter a ghost ship. Between deadly waters and a cursed ship, will the ship only delay the inevitable?

Black Sails offers a richly detailed ship with free exploration, character relationships that are dependent on decisions made, classic point-and-click controls, hints, and a macabre soundtrack.

Quoting Deck-13 Creative Director Jan Klose on the North American appearance of Black Sails:

"With the resurgence in popularity of adventure games, we felt the time was right to bring Black Sails-The Ghost Ship to a North American audience. We're looking forward to giving Steam players the same chill-inducing thrills enjoyed by our German fans of the game."

Black Sails-The Ghost Ship will embark for Steam September 17, 2015.
