Shushbuckler: A Scoundrel's Odyssey

Guide our hilariously hapless hero hush-hush through the perilous Cave of Valuables.

Zip around using a trusty leg cannon, outwit the nosy parrots, and avoid the clattering clutches of the skeleton pirates. Along the way, collect as much treasure as possible, and silence any doubters to become the wealthiest, stealthiest pirate the world has ever seen. Will the Shushbuckler finally find redemption and shush his way to success? Only you can help him on this side-splitting, adrenaline-pumping adventure!
