In this 3D action-adventure game, players use speed, agility, and magical powers to fight against pirates who are enslaving the world. Featuring 45 different locations, the game includes unforgettable mechanics such as surfing rivers of lava, flying with hair like a helicopter, and fighting ice giants.
