Evaluation

AirBuccaneers originally launched as a paid game in December 2012, then transitioned to a free-to-play model on December 10, 2014 — the developer's last meaningful communication. That post, marking the game's two-year anniversary, also contained a cryptic line about "Ragnarok getting closer," but no concrete future content was announced. Of the 26 developer news posts on record, only one qualifies as a major content event (the free-to-play transition) and one as a bug fix (a Unity engine update in August 2013). There are no announced DLC, no unreleased content listings, no roadmaps, and no developer posts of any kind after December 10, 2014. The game launched as a finished multiplayer product and has seen no substantive development activity in well over a decade. It is complete as released.

About this game

Welcome to the ancient North, once the cradle of culture and peace, but is now corrupted by magic and inhabited by nasty bandits sowing destruction in airships.


Choose to be a vicious Buccaneer or an infamous Viking and take a glider to the skies. Your goal is to drop enemy vessels and secure dominance of the ancient North. Fire cannons, help others, board enemy ships or be the captain – whatever it takes to get your enemies out of the way. The success, as well as the bitter defeat, is solely dependent on how well you co-operate with your crew mates.


Finding the right kind of battle strategy is not self-evident in the merciless winds and twisted magic of the North...
