You'll find the rocky shore and tons of buildings hiding their secrets. Who knows, maybe you would even sail into one or another cave? That island might be explored both on the surface and underneath - make sure to check out its pirate hideouts.

Maybe from the top of a steep mountain you would spot some pyramids, temples of lost civilizations...or at least some bamboo houses all of which might be worth checking out.

You might try your luck in the Kraken hunter villages, dark caves or open pit mine of the Gold Rush Islands.

Better still try to escape such a limbo full of corpses of those that did not avoid the torture tools and machines. The way to do it will be explained in the upcoming gameplay dev-blog!
