About Ferret Scoundrels
Ferretkind have traveled outside of their comfort zone to scratch out a living in the inhospitable, but profitable, high seas - filled with adventure and newly discovered trade goods. This expansion across the ocean grew faster than the law could ever hope to keep up. Dangerous and ill mannered pirates have scoured the seas unquestioned. Powerful trading guilds have long established and vigorously defended trade-routes. Only now, after countless years of lawlessness, “The Admiralty” are strengthening their grasp on this dangerous new world. After spending all of your life savings, you purchase a meager vessel and set sail to this new world. Which discoveries, alliances, and treasures await you is your choice, captain.
Naval Combat: Fight off thieving pirates, or sink a trade vessel for their cargo. In order to defeat a superior opponent you will need patience, cunning, and a little luck.
Trading: Enjoy finding deals and profitable trade routes. Trading offers a slightly less bloody way to amass your treasure.
Exploration: Sail into large storms and get blow to new seas with new islands, ships, and opportunities. Each Island you discover has potential opportunities for you to gain gold or glory.
Factions: Work for the various factions that control the sea. As you rise through the ranks of each faction you will unlock new abilities as well as gain access to new customizations.
Customization: Upgrade your vessel improving its capabilities, and appearance, or buy an entirely new vessel. Buy new uniforms for your captain and crew, even pirates had a good sense of style.

You're a captain who loses his ship due to mutiny, left only with a raft, one cannon and his lieutenant. I don't know why you and him are Ferrets or why the game puts so much emphasis on this, but I honestly do not care. It's a straight up pirate game and nothing less. The map is procedurally generated and split into grids. The further a grid is from origin, the stronger the ships roaming in it become. The grids are small enough to traverse them in a few minutes, but large enough to not see any land sometimes. Within each grid you start with a blank map and have to discover islands on your own, or you can buy map data from a cartographer (if you find one). Islands have various houses at which you can dock, like Fishermen, Farmers, Shipwrights, Merchants, Artists, Bankers, etc. You interact with these exclusively through the UI, you never actually leave your ship. In the early game, you'll want to do some trading so you can buy a new ship. Or if you're feeling lucky you can try to board a bigger ship and take it over, however this has a low rate of success. After you have a decently large ship, you'll probably want to upgrade it further. There is an NPC on islands who sells upgr…3 found this helpful
