1667 DUELS

Master the wind. Command the broadside. Rule the sea.

1667 Duels is a fast-paced 3D age-of-sail naval combat game built around close-range cannon battles, ship manoeuvring and tactical positioning.

Take command of a heavily armed sailing ship and fight for control of the open sea. Line up devastating broadsides, fire your bow and stern cannons, dodge incoming fire and outmanoeuvre your opponent before your hull is sent beneath the waves.

The game includes two modes:

3-Battle Series

Fight through three increasingly dangerous naval battles against aggressive AI captains whose only goal is to hunt you down and sink your ship.

Survive each encounter and advance to the next battle.

Local 2-Player Duel

Battle another player on the same computer in horizontal split-screen.

Player 1 uses the keyboard and mouse while Player 2 takes command with a controller.

Watch your hull, protect your sails, manoeuvre into firing position and be the last ship afloat.

COMBAT TIPS

Your cannons are most dangerous when you position the ship correctly.

Turn alongside an enemy to unleash a full broadside, use your front cannons while pursuing them and use the rear cannons when an enemy is chasing you.

Keep moving. A stationary or predictable ship is an easy target.

Damage to your sails reduces your ship's performance, while heavy hull damage will eventually send your ship beneath the waves.

The enemy captains will keep attacking until one ship is sunk.

Only one captain leaves the sea victorious.
