The briefing

About this game

In Higemaru Makaijima: Nanatsu no Shima Daibouken, Momotaru sails around seven islands in search of the greatest treasure. To reach each island, he must raid pirate ships, defeat their captains, and collect the keys needed to open the corresponding dock gates.

After landing, players explore each island, find items, defeat a boss, and recover its treasures. The pirate-ship combat builds on Capcom’s 1984 arcade game Pirate Ship Higemaru, while the island sections are often compared to the dungeon exploration of The Legend of Zelda.
