OMG Pirates! is an iPhone app by the creators of Zombieville USA, Mika Mobile. Those of you who play Castle Crashers on the Xbox will feel right at home with OMG Pirates! OMG Pirates is an action “beat-’em-up” game, which places you as a ninja fighting off hordes of pirates who are invading your village.

The gameplay works like a charm – the ninja star on the left is used to move your character around the screen. Unlike Zombieville USA, where you could only move left and right, in this game you can move in any direction. As explained in the tutorial in the game, the green button does different things depending on when you press it. If you press it when you’re running, you can do an awesome ninja jump, and if you press it while you’re standing still, you can dodge/counter.

Even on easy mode this game gets challenging fairly quickly. The kinds of pirates have great variety and overuse of the bombing pirate gets really annoying.

I’ll give this app a score of 9/10, I say buy it.

And if you’re good, you can cheat your way through the levels, as shown below.
