About Cutthroat Island
Cutthroat Island came out for the Game Boy in 1995, developed by Software Creations. It was part of that wave of licensed games based on movies, and on the handheld it felt like a solid attempt to capture a pirate adventure. You controlled a character named Morgan, who was searching for a massive treasure. The game was a side-scrolling action platformer, which was a common setup for the system.
You guide Morgan through different locations, like a port town and underground caves, fighting guards and other enemies with a sword. The main goal is to find three pieces of a treasure map. You explore screen by screen, jumping across gaps and climbing ropes. Combat is straightforward; you just swing your sword when you get close to someone. The game can be difficult, with some tricky platforming sections and enemies that respawn. It feels like a challenging, straightforward quest from that era.
