Objectives Update
Were really excited to introduce Paper Pirates 2.0! Headline features include fast mode, the Captains Log, and perhaps most excitingly, a whole new game mode with an entirely new way to play Paper Pirates! Without further ado, lets get into the patch notes....
Our new game mode completely changes the way that you sail on the seven seas! Paper Pirates is team-based, its true, but in a Scored Game, each pirate earns coins depending on how well they play. To unlock scored games, just play one game of Paper Pirates, and then the Scored Game and Custom Game buttons will be available to you in the main menu!
In a Scored Game, pirates earn coins depending on how well they play. Vote to throw a ghost overboard as a human? Coins for you! Achieve your victory condition? Coins for you! The more coins you have, the better youll rank at the end of the game. Coin totals are hidden until the end of the game, so you never know quite whos in the lead until the dramatic finale.
In a Scored Game, each pirate also has their very own secret objective, earning coins for meeting their objective as they progress through the game. Secret objectives are unique to you, and only displayed on your device, so dont be sharin them with yer crew! Objectives range from trying to finish the game as the captain, to gaining bonus coins every time you throw a targeted pirate overboard, so theyre sure to mix up your usual style. But watch out! One player might be demotivated, earning a bumper crop of coins if they finish the game as the stowaway
There are fifteen different objectives, and once youve unlocked scored games you can read all about them in the brand-new Captains Log. Once you know what they are, youll need to look out for any pirates who are behaving suspiciously Try to achieve your secret objective, but dont let anyone else get theirs to stay ahead of your crewmates!
Weve heard your requests for a fast mode, for those of you who are seasoned sailors. If youre looking for a speedier game of Paper Pirates, head over to the options screen and enable Fast Mode. In Fast Mode, fewer dialogue boxes will be displayed, and theres less time spent waiting for animations. Dont panic, well still share important information, like when events are happening, so dont feel like you need to know Paper Pirates inside out before you try it out. You can even turn it on in the middle of a game using the options menu!
Lookin for info on all the secret workings of Paper Pirates voyages? The new Captains Log is for you! It holds the secrets of all the objectives, events, hats and bots in the game. Events wont show up until youve seen them in a game, and hats wont show up until youve unlocked them, so hunt them all down to reveal them in the log!
Brimming over with piratey feelings? Your pirates have learnt a whole new way to communicate! When you pop open the chat box, youll now see four new emote buttons that will prompt your pirate to express their feelings through the medium of animation. Feeling joyful? Your pirate can cheer with a heart! Feeling surprised? Your pirate can show an exclamation! Why not use emotes in combination with emoji to really show how youre feeling when your crewmates have turned against you and are all voting to throw you overboard!
For those of you who play solo or like to throw in a bot or two for a bigger game, weve made improvements to our bots to make them more seaworthy.
Weve tweaked our bot AI so that theyre a little smarter. They should now have a better understanding of event outcomes, and identify their vote targets a little more keenly, and may even send a chat message if they find out some secret information! Does that mean its a little bit harder to win against the bots? Maybe! Good luck out there pirates, youll need it.
Each of the bots now has their very own fixed appearance and personality, so you can spend a little bit of time getting to know them. There are eleven bots for you to know and love, and we hope that over time, youll welcome them into your games with a hearty yo ho ho! Have a favourite bot? Why not let us know in the comments!
Finding that youre spending ages in the pirate customiser, setting up the perfect pirate look every time you play? Were introducing pirate templates! When you customise a pirate, itll be bookmarked using your pirates name. Next time you join a game hosted by the same person on the same PC with the same name, youll default to the same appearance! Dont worry, you can still edit it and it'll update the template, so youre never stuck with the same hat for too long.
When starting a custom game, there are some new options to keep your games fresh. You can choose to play either Paper Pirates Classic, or the brand-new Scored Mode, and all customisation options are available to you whichever you choose. You can now also choose whether to fill your missing spaces with bots or not, perfect if youre not sure how many pirates are coming aboard! Finally, you can now break the ghost slider apart, and choose a minimum and maximum number of ghosts - that means youll get a random number of ghosts in your game! In a random ghosts game, you dont find out how many ghosts there are at the start, for that added layer of deductive difficulty.
To keep things fun and fair, and to always meet the pirate code, the following balance changes have been made to events:

Balance Updates
To keep things fun and fair, and to always meet the pirate code, the following balance changes have been made to events:
- In the Election event, the stowaway is no longer eligible to vote and cannot be elected captain. The captain, on the other hand, is now able to vote!
A Few Other Things
- A small number of new options have been added to the pirate customiser
- Idle on the title screen for long enough, and you might see some of the bots dropping in for a surprise visit!
- The appearance of the aura, indicating how many times a player has played into rounds successfully or unsuccessfully, has been improved
- The distance track has been revamped to more clearly indicate your progress
Bug Fixes
- The Stowaway event outcome now displays correctly in the Round History.
- Clicking in the Round History no longer accidentally mutes pirates hiding behind the history window.

At the end of each round, you’ll vote for somebody to walk the plank. You want to purge the ghosts, but be careful... every innocent pirate overboard comes back to haunt someone anew!I’m the Captain Now
When someone goes overboard you could be up for a promotion. The higher your rank, the more likely you are to get haunted and become a target. If you end up as captain, you’ll be the one choosing who gets to take part in each day’s task. Make sure you know who you can trust to get you home!Packed with Events
Are things going too well? Oops, we’ve hit rocks; a whirlpool has caught us; cue spooky ghostly apparitions! Are we nearly all out of treasure and all hope is lost?
