Paper Pirates

Rise of the Kraken

The Kraken Awakens!


You thought the Kraken wouldn't notice all the times you fished up a squid on the island, huh? Well you were wrong! The Kraken is angry and looking for revenge!



The Kraken Rises


The Kraken Rises is our second adventure event, and like The Island Adventure, it has a whole host of minigames and challenges for pirates to encounter! As the Kraken emerges from the sea, you'll have the chance to fight it in different ways, before confronting it for a final showdown.



The Kraken has five weaknesses for you to exploit, and if you successfully wound the Kraken it'll be much weaker in the final battle. However, each weakness comes with good and bad things that can happen for the crew, so be careful and choose where to aim your harpoons wisely!



Once you've had your shot at wounding the Kraken, it will bear down on the ship ready for a final battle. All of the crew need to work together to fight the Kraken off! And whether you're victorious, or suffer defeat at the tentacles of the Kraken, the effects of the battle will surely be felt for the next few days of your voyage.



New Customisation Options!


Sam Sherbot has gotten themselves new items for sale in the Outfit Shop aboard the Shop Ship, amongst them are a full Kraken outfit and the brand new Pride collection!



Not wanting to be outdone, Nat O'Bother also has a few new pieces in the Ship Shop aboard the Shop Ship. Definitely check out the Rainbow Hull and Rainbow Generator!



New Achievements


With the rising of the Kraken come new achievements, and as always, new hats. If you can achieve any of the following, you'll have some brand new pirate headwear to ensure you're definitely talk of the town!


  • Oceanographer - Explore all the different ways to wound the Kraken during the The Kraken Rises event
  • Feast for the Kraken - Hide the entire crew in the same place during the The Kraken's Beak event
  • Apple of my Eye - Successfully blind the Kraken in the The Kraken's Eye event without making any mistakes
  • Potion Explosion - As The Witch, use a Potion of Overboarding to throw yourself overboard
  • Buzz Off - Encounter the Wasp Nest event twenty-five times


Five new traits!


As the Kraken rises out of the ocean, so too do five new traits for the crew! As always, these traits can be assigned to humans or ghosts, so get ready for yer mateys to cause you a whole world of trouble!



New Trait: The Contrarian


The Contrarian is, for all intents and purposes, contrary. Whenever they would become a human, they instead become a ghost. Whenever they would become a ghost, they instead become a human! And yes, this includes when they go overboard - so they'll always arrive back on the ship as a ghost stowaway...

New Trait: The Bodyswapper


On days when The Bodyswapper does not play in, they can choose any other pirate. During the pre-event phase, the Bodyswapper will trade teams with their selected pirate. It's freaky! Will the Bodyswapper try to swap with a human, or a ghost? Can you keep track of who's who?

New Trait: The Brawler


On days when The Brawler does not play in, they can challenge any other pirate to a brawl. The brawl plays out in the pre-event phase, with the traditional pirate brawling technique of rock-paper-scissors. If The Brawler wins the brawl, they'll steal their opponent's rank on the ship!

New Trait: The Beast


Each and every time The Beast goes overboard, whether that's through an event or voting, their voting power increases by two. It keeps going up every time they're thrown overboard too, so be careful! Throwing The Beast overboard too many times means they have some big voting power...

New Trait: The Medium


On days when The Medium does not play in, they can write a hidden message that will be revealed only to the ghosts in the pre-event phase. Whether the Medium is a human or a ghost, what information will they reveal and how will they coordinate, or trick, the ghosts?

New Trait Icons


To help pirates familiarise themselves with the different traits, we've also added a unique icon for each and every trait. You can check these out in the Captain's Log, or you can be surprised by each trait icon as you discover it in your black spot!

Pirate Booty!


Just because your game's over doesn't mean the fun is! Once all the humans and ghosts have been uncovered, you'll now have the chance to see the booty you've collected on your voyage. There are various ways that you can earn coins in-game, and the Booty Board will help you to better understand where your coins from. Additionally, we've made it slightly easier to earn coins across the game. More cool outfits for everyone!



The Booty Board also awards three accolades to members of the crew. Who will be celebrating? It might be an opportunity to celebrate a pirate who captained the ship to victory, or someone who changed teams most frequently!

We're Going on an Adventure!


With the introduction of a second adventure event, we're also adding a new event that can pop up giving pirates the option to pick which adventure they want to go on. Every single member of the crew gets a say, and the destination is decided by The Wheel of Fate (The Compass of Fate's older sibling). Will you set sail for the island, or can you see the beastly Kraken on the horizon?



Limiting Some Traits to Certain Crew Sizes


To promote game balance, and to make sure that everyone has a fun time when playing Trait games, we've set player limits for a few of the traits. In most cases, this means that you need a certain number of pirates in a game before a trait will appear. You can see how big the crew needs to be on the game customisation screen, and once your game starts the Trait Guide on each player's device will remove any traits that didn't make it into the game.

Take Photos of your Ship


When customising your ship at the Ship Shop, we've added a little camera button that gives you a nice full screen view of your ship with a fancy name placard. This is great way to share photos of your different ships, and show off all the cool things you've bought!



Pre-event Information in the Captain's Log


Pre-events are those events that happen before the main event. The little ones that come into play when you use an active trait for example. To help you keep track, we've added these to the Captain's Log - and most importantly - they're listed in the order they'll happen each day. Confused about whether The Witch or The Wishful gets to use their power first? The Captain's Log tells all!



Improved Event Information on your Device


We've all done it. The event is The Spy. It's you. You choose someone. You forget to look whether they're human or ghost, and that information is lost to the seas. Not anymore! Information revealed during events will now be displayed in a pop-up, that won't go away until you're ready. If you close the popup by accident, or just need a recap, your game log will now keep a personalised history of any information revealed to you in events. Handy!

The Bots are Getting Smarter


We've made some improvements when playing with bots in trait games, and in particular, we've taught them how to use a number of different traits. Bots could already activate the traits of The Wishful and The Diligent, but bots can now also activate The Witch, The Shapeshifter, The Brawler, The Meddler and The Bodyswapper!

A few other bits and pieces...



  • When visiting the Captain's Log to check out the bios for the various bots, we've added pronouns for each.
  • When in the lobby, you can use the new 'Add Bot' button to add a bot directly to your lobby. Super useful if you're looking for a particular bot to join your game!


As always, don’t forget that you can join us every Saturday at 8pm BST on Twitch for our weekly dev stream, or pop by our YouTube channel to see Let’s Plays of Paper Pirates, How To videos and more! Or if you’re looking for a crew to set sail with make sure to join our Discord!

Spring Sailing!

Go Egg Hunting on the Seven Seas with Spring Sailing!


Across March and April, we’re celebrating with the Paper Pirates Seasonal Celebration, Spring Sailing! Running from 15th March - 12th April, celebrate the season of spring with a festival of eggs, bunnies, and a whole host of seasonal goodies in Paper Pirates!



Seasonal Trait: The Spring Chicken


Joining Paper Pirates for the duration of Spring Sailing is the seasonal trait, The Spring Chicken! Play a trait game, and one of the crew may find themselves with this happy-go-lucky, seasonal appropriate trait.

Each day, when The Spring Chicken is not the Captain, they will spring forward one rank of the crew at the start of the event phase! This happens even if there's no other event taking place! What seems like a blessing may be a curse - watch out if you're a ghostly Spring Chicken and you're almost next to The Sensitive...

The Grand Spring Egg Hunt


Every day during Spring Sailing the crew will be challenged to an Egg Hunt by our very own Rabbot! They've hidden a number of eggs all throughout Paper Pirates for you to find - they could be in any of the menu screens, or even in-game! Find your quota each day, and you'll be able to open a special Spring Sailing surprise.



There's two outfits, for a combined total of ten items, to collect through The Grand Spring Egg Hunt. Make sure to check for eggs every day, and get ready to dress up!

Limited Time Costumes


During Spring Sailing, Sam Sherbot and Nat O'Bother have some new customisation options available to unlock in the Shop Ship!

The “Lucky Egg Hunt” Event!


Go on a sailing adventure during Spring Sailing, and each day there is a chance you may encounter the “Lucky Egg Hunt” event. A random member of the crew gets to pick one egg out of a selection. The eggs all contain events, and whichever egg they choose will instantly trigger that event! All the other pirates on the boat will get a clue, showing them a picture of an egg, and a description of the event that will happen. Make sure you communicate to the egg hunter to let them know what might happen for each egg - but watch out for the ghosts, who might give you a bad description, or tell you fibs about the event squirreled away inside!



Spring Celebrations in the Photo Booth


To celebrate Spring Sailing, there are two limited-time Foils available in the Photo Booth, in the Captain’s Log. Take the opportunity to snap your favourite pirate templates, and share any pics you take!

Spring Sailing Bot


Invite bots into your game during Spring Sailing, and you may encounter Rabbot - our very own pirate-y Easter Bunny, out to help you uncover eggs at sea! Rabbot will only join your games during Spring Sailing, so take the chance to meet them now before they hop away to hibernate for the rest of the year!


Big Birthday Bash!

Happy birthday, Paper Pirates!


It's Paper Pirates' second birthday, and we’re celebrating with a new Paper Pirates Seasonal Celebration, The Big Birthday Bash! Running from 28th February - 14th March, celebrate the anniversary of the game's launch with a festival of partying, and a whole host of anniversary goodies in Paper Pirates!



Seasonal Trait: The Magician


Joining Paper Pirates for the duration of The Big Birthday Bash is the seasonal trait, The Magician! Play a trait game during The Big Birthday Bash, and one of the crew may find themselves playing as The Magician.



When the entire crew have finished voting, but no pirate has gone overboard, The Magician will have the opportunity to cast a magic vote. This magic vote has two voting power, and can be cast for any pirate (other than The Magician themselves). The crew won't know who The Magician is, unless they can figure it out through deductive reasoning!

The magic vote still counts as voting for a pirate to go overboard, so if The Magician throws a human overboard they run the risk of becoming a ghost. Question is... who are they?

The “Let Them Eat Cake” Event!


Go on a sailing adventure during The Big Birthday Bash, and each day there is a chance you may encounter the “Let Them Eat Cake” event. The crew will divide up a huge birthday cake, taking the chance to blow out the candles one by one. It's believed that the last person who blows out a candle will get to make a wish... what will they wish for, and will their wish come true?!



Birthday Gift Bounties


Every day during The Big Birthday Bash the crew will receive a special birthday gift bounty! If you complete the assigned task, you can open a present, and inside you will find... a special cosmetic surprise! There are eight different cosmetics in total to collect, so make sure to collect your birthday gifts during the seasonal celebration!



Limited Time Costumes and Ship Parts


During The Big Birthday Bash, Sam Sherbot and Nat O'Bother have some new customisation options available to unlock in the Shop ship!

Developer Bots Jump Aboard


Invite bots into your game during The Big Birthday Bash, and you may find some of the regular crew replaced with one or three bots that mimic the Iteration Games crew! They’ll only join your games during The Big Birthday Bash, but these bots have their own personality and appearances modelled after the Paper Pirates developers.

Valentine Voyages!

Find romance on the seven seas with Valentine Voyages!


This February, we’re celebrating with the Paper Pirates Seasonal Celebration, Valentine Voyages! Running from 7th February - 21st February, celebrate the season of love with a festival of romance, and a whole host of seasonal goodies in Paper Pirates!



Reworked Trait: The Cursed



We wanted to give a little extra oomph to playing as The Cursed, and at the same time make it so that the ghosts have a few more options when they're corned by a cunning spy. To give The Cursed more playstyles, we've added to their trait a permanent disguise; Whenever their team is revealed through traits or events, they'll always show as if they're a ghost even when they're human.

When playing a Trait Game, you might always want to think twice before throwing someone overboard... Are they really The Tainted or could they be The Cursed in disguise?!

Seasonal Trait: The Admirer


New to Valentine Voyages 2022 is the seasonal trait, The Admirer! Play a trait game during Valentine Voyages, and one of the crew may find themselves playing as The Admirer.



In the first day, The Admirer must choose a target of their admiration from the crew. The Admirer's team will then immediately change to match the pirate they chose. Not only that, but every time The Admirer's target changes team, The Admirer's team will change too! That means if the target of their admiration becomes a ghost... Well, you know what you have to do!

The Admirer's team will no longer change through other means (if they're a human, they can't join the ghost team unless their target pirate is haunted), so watch out for any very tricky Admirer plays!

Limited Time Costumes and Ship Parts


During Valentine Voyages, Sam Sherbot and Nat O'Bother have some new customisation options available to unlock in the Shop ship! If you buy a customisation option during Valentine Voyages, you can use it all year round - but the items will be disappearing from sale when the event is over, so don’t delay and buy today!

The “Cupid’s Arrow” Event!


Go on a sailing adventure during Valentine Voyages, and each day there is a chance you may encounter the “Cupid’s Arrow” event. A random member of the crew is given the opportunity to fire Cupid’s arrow at another. Whoever they fire it at will have their role changed to match the person who fired the arrow - whether they were human, or ghost! Keep track of the arrow, and see if you can deduce whose role is what as you forge ahead on your voyage.



Love Letter Bounties


What's this? The crew has received a mysterious letter, emblazoned with a heart motif? What could this mysterious love letter mean? It seems that there's a series of tasks for you to complete throughout Valentine Voyage's, and each one rewards you with... a special heart-shaped box!? What would be inside?



Valentine Celebrations in the Photo Booth


To celebrate Valentine Voyages, there is a limited-time Foil available in the Photo Booth, in the Captain’s Log. Take the opportunity to snap your favourite pirate templates, and share any pics you take!

Invite bots into your game during Valentine Voyages, and you may find some of the regular crew replaced with one or two super romantic guests, out to help you find love at sea! They’ll only join your games during Valentine Voyages, but these bots have their own personality and appearances for you to enjoy.

Soggy Hogmanay!

Ring in the New Year on the Seven Seas with Soggy Hogmanay!





Throughout January, we’re celebrating with the Paper Pirates Seasonal Celebration, Soggy Hogmanay! Running from 1st January - 21st January, celebrate the start of the New Year with a festival of glad tidings, and a whole host of seasonal goodies in Paper Pirates!

Reworked Trait: The Diligent



In preparation for the New Year, but staying all year round, is a revised version of The Diligent. We've moved The Diligent to an active trait but one that only activates when you are chosen to play in! When participating in a job, The Diligent will be asked - after choosing whether to obey or disobey - if they want to work a little harder. If they do, the outcome of the day's job will be doubled. That means if it's a success, the crew move two spaces to shore, but if it's a failure, two treasures will go overboard!

The newly revised Diligent also activates when you're the Captain, so be very careful of a Ghost Captain Diligent who might be making a mad rush to get all your treasure overboard at the last second!

Seasonal Trait: The Resolute


New to Soggy Hogmanay 2021 is the seasonal trait, The Resolute! Play a trait game during Soggy Hogmanay, and one of the crew may find themselves playing as The Resolute.



The Resolute must make a New Year's Resolution during the first day of the voyage. Their resolution asks them to pledge their allegiance to either the human or the ghost team. Whichever team they pick, they will instantly join - and they won't be able to become a member of the opposite team, no matter what happens, for the entirety of the remainder of the voyage!

Their choice is private to them, so make sure you don't get caught out by a sneaky Resolute pretending to have become a perma-human, when they might actually have just become The Tainted's best friend...

Limited Time Costumes


During Soggy Hogmanay, Sam Sherbot and Nat O'Bother have some new customisation options available to unlock in the Shop Ship! If you buy a customisation option during Soggy Hogmanay, you can use it all year round - but the items will be disappearing from sale when the event is over, so don’t delay and buy today!

The ‘Fastest First Foot’ Event!



Go on a sailing adventure during Soggy Hogmanay, and each day there is a chance you may encounter the ‘Fastest First Foot’ event, inspired by the Hogmanay tradition of First Footing. As the crew return from an adventure on a deserted treasure island, they race to see who has the honour of first footing the pirate ship. Those pirates who make it back first are granted good fortune for the coming voyage - and will be given a higher rank on the ship accordingly! Have your devices at the ready and press a button as soon as it appears, and any pirate has the chance of seizing the rank of captain!



Resolution Bounty


To help ring in the New Year, and start as you mean to go on, the bounty board is offering you a New Year’s Resolution Bounty! Throughout the duration of Soggy Hogmanay, you will have one giant bounty to complete! If you complete that one bounty over the course of the celebration, you will receive a truly staggering number of coins in celebration and you’ll be well on the way to a prosperous 2022. It’s just too good to miss!

Hogmanay Celebrations in the Photo Booth


To celebrate the arrival of the new year, there are a small number of limited-time Foils and Backgrounds available in the Photo Booth, in the Captain’s Log. Take the opportunity to snap your favourite pirate templates, and share any pics you take!

Throughout all of December, we’re celebrating, sharing, and gift giving, with the fourth Paper Pirates Seasonal Celebration, Yule Tides! Running from 1st December - 31st December, celebrate Christmas with a festival of merriment and joy, and a whole host of seasonal goodies in Paper Pirates!



Seasonal Trait: The Gift Giver


New to Yule Tides 2021 is the seasonal trait, The Gift Giver! Play a trait game during Haunted Seas, and one of the pirates may find themselves playing as The Gift Giver.



The Gift Giver is offered a present to gift to a pirate of their choice on every day when they don't play in. There are a range of different gifts, but which one you get to give is random each day! You can only give three gifts on each voyage - and to make things even more tricky, each pirate can only receive a gift once.

Will you get the gifts you need to sail to success? Or will you accidentally end up giving away a victory to the ghosts.

Limited Time Costumes


During Yule Tides, Sam Sherbot and Nat O'Bother have some new customisation options available to unlock in the Shop Ship!

Snowball Fight!


Go on a sailing adventure during Yule Tides, and each day there is a chance it may begin to snow giving the crew the opportunity to partake in a little festive fun - a traditional snowball fight! When Snowball Fight is triggered, each member of the crew must choose who to pelt with a snowball. The pirate who receives the most snowballs will be thrown overboard! Who will you throw your snowball at? When they go overboard, if they’re a human, one of the people who threw the snowball will become a ghost… so choose wisely!



Naughty or Nice?


During your Yule Tides sailing adventures, you may encounter the ‘Naughty or Nice’ event during the event phase of the game. In ‘Naughty or Nice’, one member of the crew must offer a gift to another. Question is - has the receiver been naughty, or nice? The present-giver must decide, with a host of fun positive outcomes for nice, and some meaner tricks for naughty. When the receiver is given the gift, they can choose whether to open it, or discard it. Do you think your crewmate has sent you something nice, or are they a ghost, hoping to catch you out? That’s all part of festive deception!



Advent Bounties


In the countdown to Christmas, the bounty board is celebrating each and every day that passes! Each day from the 1st-24th December, you’ll receive a special Advent Bounty, with a challenge for you to complete! If you complete an advent bounty, you'll be rewarded with a special Paper Pirates Present! There are five Yeti-tastic items for you to discover!

During the Event phase of the game, the Wish on a Wishbone event may activate for the duration of The Festive Feast, offering two randomly chosen pirates the opportunity to wish for an event to occur. Which of the pirates will pull the larger half of the wishbone and have their wishes granted…? That’s all part of the fun of Wish on a Wishbone!
