Sep 19, 2025

8 Years Before the Mast.

When The Caribbean Sail was first released 8 years ago, I knew she would be a hit deserving her very own card deck and here we are!

300 Decks are now available for 25% off until October 1st![victorianclambake.com] - Claim yours from Victorian Clambake[victorianclambake.com]!

The keen eyed among you may have noticed a version jump in a silent patch recently. I'll let ye lads in on a little secret. Legend says there's a new secret in the game you won't be able to find without a Deck of Sailors.

Card Games!?!?

Ye can also find 6 card games playable with the deck!

Scallywag[victorianclambake.com]

A single-player roguelike dungeon crawler.

Can you survive a voyage to the bottom of the deck?

Sailor Scopa[victorianclambake.com]

Variation of the traditional Italian card game “Scopa!”

Can be played with a standard deck, scopa deck, or tarot deck!

The Hunt for Davy Jones[victorianclambake.com]

An original card game about deception, discovery, and betrayal that can be played with any deck of playing cards!

* This one is my personal favorite.

Pirate Hold’em[victorianclambake.com]

You’ve never played poker with 86 cards before.
Poker with hands including major arcana, jokers, red aces, and the whale.

Captain Seven’s Doubloons[victorianclambake.com]

Push your luck and be the first pirate to hoard 100 doubloons without being caught by the treacherous Captain Seven.

Black Spot[victorianclambake.com]

Plunder an accursed treasure trove with your crew and become the richest man standing before there’s nothing more to take.

Now raise a tankard in celebration of the 8th anniversary of The Caribbean Sail and sing a shanty!

Fair winds to ye all lads!

The Deck of Sailors - Setting Sail!

Feb 1, 2025

Ahoy there!

Since Nintendo wouldn't take my game for the Switch, I've brought The Caribbean Sail to paper instead!

"Just a card deck?" I hear you mutter with a twinge of curiosity tainted by a drop of waning disappointment. Nay! Banish those doubts and behold the infomercial!

There we are. Now that I've got your attention, here's what you can find in the box!

Deluxe Deck - 90 cards in total. Major and Minor Arcana, Jokers, and bonus cards.
Minor Arcana - Coins, skulls, hearts, and swords.
Major Arcana - 22 unique poker size tarot cards labeled by roman numeral.
Bonuses - 2 game cards, 4 mysterious red aces, a tarot reference card, and more!

If that doesn't have you reaching for your wallet, how about a tarot cloth for divination... or just making it easier to pick up cards off of hard surfaces like your heart?

Made from the finest sail cloth I could sink my hooks into.

While supplies last, you can also get my name fancifully written on a card by yours truly!
Half were gone in the first hour so I doubt this illustrious privilege will last much longer.
It may even be worth something when I'm dead!

Now stop listening to my blathering and go plunder yourself a Deck of Sailors!

I couldn't bring the sea dragon to the game but at least he can live on in ink.

Thank you for enduring the written medium and supporting the physical medium.

Fair winds to you all lads!

Happy Seventh Anniversary to The Caribbean Sail!

After years of being restrained to only the darkest corners of taverns, those tarot cards are coming to the real world along with a full deck of playing cards styled in the black and white pixels of The Caribbean Sail!

You could read fortunes... or you could play a game of gin rummy, poker, bull***t, scopa, or The Hunt for Davy Jones![victorianclambake.com] -and by Neptune, why stop there? Invent your own card games with the custom suits!

Coins

Swords

Hearts

Skulls

You've never seen a card deck like this and you likely never will again. These won't be none of your cabin boys flat sticky flimsy paper cards neither, nay, I'm having them printed on the air cushioned M32* linen stock that dreams are made from which cardistry experts and magicians would be proud to wield.

Get notified when the Kickstarter goes live here!

Seven years. Wow.

Talk like a pirate day 2017 was the initial release date of these piratey pixels and I never thought that I'd still be passionate about making new artwork or pushing content updates all this time later but you keep me motivated.

Thank you kindly for all your support over the years and bringing my dreams to life time and time again. Raise a drink to yourselves lads as we look forward to another year of Caribbean Sailing!
- The Captain, Evan Massie

*M32 stock will be stretch goal dependent as minimum prints start at 1,000 decks.

Semper Sargasso - V1.8.2

Jul 1, 2024

SARGASSO SPOTTED!

A new ocean event in Fantasy and Purist mode has reared its algae bedraggled head to look in your direction like an obnoxious in-law at your Christmas dinner.

A gentle slimy hug from the ocean

When sailing the waters of the Atlantic, there is now a small chance to cross a Sargasso belt. These floaty green pools of seaweed, algae, and sargassum will slow your ship by 30% while offering a new fishing opportunity; EELS!

Ever ate an eel? Me neither but these ones won't give you electric feels.
Throw em to the crew and they'll slurp them down like spaghetti.

Patch Logbook

New Feature
+ Atlantic Sargasso Sea event
+ Eel fish type
+ Net eels

Bug Fixes
- Launch logo centered on all screen sizes
- Inventory deletion / duplication bug resolved

This update would not have happened without Kofi supporters[ko-fi.com]. Join the crew if you'd like to see another feature update someday.

Fair winds to you all lads!

Achievement Fix

The achievements have been fixed.

Windows 11 improved support / Mac losing support

Feb 10, 2024

This post will be dryer than your mouth after three days at sea without water.

Due to recent Windows 11 incompatibilities, I ran The Caribbean Sail through GameMaker 2 and exported it. This was a painfully difficult process that involved resolving over 48,000 errors.

Changes

+ Version number is now 1.8
+ Exported with GM2

[Notice]

If you were experiencing crashes on Windows 11 before and this resolved them, please let me know.
If you are experiencing any crashes now that you weren't before, please let me know also.
I will not sell defective products.

Regarding Mac

The game was unfortunately never ported to Mac 64-bit and unfortunately I cannot afford a Mac at this time to export with and as Steam is fully discontinuing support for 32-bit Mac applications, I will not be supporting Mac users for now. If you would like to help potentially bring back Mac support then donations on my Ko-Fi will go towards licensing fees, developer fees, and development hardware: https://ko-fi.com/victorianclambake#

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2153250/Captain_Blacksword/
Looking for something more exciting? I've recently updated the page for my next game with many new GIF's! Check it out and wishlist your next nautical adventure today!

Fair winds to you all,

[ENDED] New Merch Store!

Nov 23, 2023

You know what every good pirate needs? Cannons.

[The Merch store is no longer live - Event ended]

Unfortunately those are hard to make, ship, or sell online so I've created the next best thing: A limited time merch store!

[vcmerch.com]Hosted by shopify and printed by printful (not painstakingly handcrafted as usual) all high enough quality for this Captain's standards!

[vcmerch.com]The desk pad is my personal favorite. There's no branding which makes it versatile! Use it as a giant mouse pad, a game mat to make cards easier to pick up (Try my card game[victorianclambake.com] on it), make your coworkers jealous, organize your crew rations on it, make it into a rum coaster for your table, roll it up and smack away seagulls, wrap yourself in it for warmth as the cruel winds blow down from the north- the possibilities are endless!

[vcmerch.com]My second favorite piece is the Joyless Roger stealth shirt! Black printed on black is obviously the coolest possible cooler combination and it doesn't come cooler than this. The subtle design without branding makes it a flexible base piece for any everyday pirate looking to show their true colors.

On limited quantities

There's a few other items on the store but all are currently limited to only 10 units available in total per size, per item, shipping in USA only. I don't plan on staying in the merch business forever at this time so fetch yer swag and toss a few doubloons my way because this whole ship will sink in January 2024.

If things go well I may replenish stock in December, create more designs, more products, or other things... like a sheet of Caribbean Sail themed stickers. I'm testing new waters so we'll see where they take us!

That's all well and good Captain but where's our next game?
