Captain Blood
Five clones scattered throughout the galaxy, draining your life force. You must find and assimilate them before the ship's auto-bionic functions take over completely... and render you inhuman. Death-defying flights through hyperspace and dangerous terrain lead to strange worlds with alien inhabitants: Migrax, Croolis-Ulv, and the beautiful and beguiling Torka. They have the information you need to find and destroy your clones- if you're clever enough to get it.

Really, it’s just worth playing if you want a love letter to late 2000s action games – or, I guess, if you want a time capsule from the same era that never saw the light of day due to a confluence of crazy factors. Either way, if that applies to your very specific gaming interests (and, weirdly, it does mine), then Captain Blood is a game you need to play.

Fun and refreshing for fans of retro-style action games, Captain Blood delivers engaging combat, hidden secrets, and satisfying upgrades. However, clunky mechanics and balancing issues may frustrate players seeking polished modern gameplay. While its old-school charm shines, it’s an experience best suited for nostalgic action enthusiasts.

Captain Blood is such an interesting release, a true time capsule from a different era of gaming. From the static camera angles to the way it treats quick-time events, it is clear that the team was inspired by Resident Evil 4 and the PS2 God of War games during development. This simultaneously winds up being the game’s greatest selling point and its limiting factor. Beyond a novelty, it’s also just a fun swashbuckling time with plenty of action by taking full advantage of its pirate motif. Disclosure: The publisher provided a PlayStation 5 copy for our Captain Blood (PS5) review.

I had a fun time with Captain Blood even if it’s clearly dated. For a forgotten game that should have been released back during the end of the Bush administration, the idea still feels fresh to this day. A pirate-themed God of War clone was appealing back then, and still is now. Just bear in mind the quality of life enhancements you’d expect from the 2020s aren’t featured in this game, and that it wouldn’t have even been a masterpiece for its intended generation of consoles. If that’s okay to you, then go for it.

Captain Blood is a bold, brash hack-and-slash with heart—but it’s more Saturday morning cartoon than high-seas epic. If you’re in the mood for a bite-sized pirate brawl with exaggerated flair and old-school charm, it’s worth boarding. Just don’t expect a deep treasure chest underneath all that glitter.

Captain Blood is a reminder of a lost era of gaming, one that is sure to make you feel nostalgic and may even win you over with its unique world and characters. However, nostalgia alone does not make a game great, and the game feels dated even for the era it meant to release in. Some may enjoy this title, but for others, it’s going to be a hard pass Try Hard Guides was provided a Steam PC Review code for Captain Blood.
