During tactical phases, players can use skill and attribute cards to enhance their team members and gain an edge over opponents. Raise the sails and uncover the buried secrets in the distant lands of Flint: Treasure of Oblivion.

I don't like pirates but I do like some things about this,

- hex-based combat
- mature art style
- stylish UI

The linearity sucks though

This looks a lot like the Expedition games. I mean both the premise, the gameplay and even the graphics.

I wonder if same devs are involved? Anyway, I will probably be playing this if it is any good.
