What is Sea of Conquest: Pirate War?

In Sea of Conquest: Pirate War you command a pirate fleet: upgrade ships, recruit a crew of famous captains and sail an open sea full of treasure, monsters and rival players.

FunPlus released a PC version with a major update, so you can play on a big screen with mouse and keyboard.

What the game is

Sea of Conquest is a pirate-themed strategy game with RPG elements. You build and customize your flagship, recruit captains with unique abilities and navigate an open sea map. Combat is a mix of ship-to-ship battles and crew fights when boarding enemy vessels.

The sea map is shared with other players. Alliances control sea zones, trade routes and treasure locations. PvE content includes sea monsters, treasure hunts and story missions.

Gameplay loop

  1. Build your fleet. Upgrade your flagship, add cannons, sails and armor.
  2. Recruit captains. Each captain has unique combat skills and ship bonuses.
  3. Explore the open sea. Find treasure, fight monsters, discover islands.
  4. Join an alliance. Control sea zones, raid rivals and coordinate naval warfare.
  5. Events and raids. Limited-time events offer exclusive captains and rewards.

System requirements

Spec Minimum Recommended
CPU Any modern processor Intel i5 equivalent
RAM 4 GB (reported) 8 GB
GPU Integrated graphics OK Dedicated GPU for smoother sailing
Storage 10 GB SSD preferred
OS Windows 10 64-bit Windows 10/11 64-bit

Lightweight. Runs on most hardware without issues.

Monetization

Captain recruitment, gem packs and speed-ups. Similar monetization to other FunPlus strategy games. Free players can enjoy the story and casual exploration. Competitive alliance warfare benefits from spending.

The game provides free gems and captains through events, daily quests and story progression.

Tips for new players

  • Follow the story quests first. They guide you through mechanics and give strong early rewards.
  • Upgrade your flagship consistently. Ship power determines what content you can access.
  • Join an alliance quickly. Alliance buffs and protection matter from the start.
  • Save premium currency for featured captains. Standard pulls are less valuable.
  • Explore the whole map. Hidden islands and resource spots reward thorough exploration.

Who should play this

Players who enjoy pirate themes with alliance strategy and fleet building. The naval combat and exploration add variety to the standard strategy formula. If you prefer land-based warfare, Rise of Kingdoms offers deeper strategy. If you want more RPG combat, Raid: Shadow Legends focuses entirely on team-building.

Verdict

A charming pirate-themed strategy game that combines fleet management with open-sea exploration. Lighter than Rise of Kingdoms but more thematic. Good for casual daily sessions with pirate flair.
