Pirate Raids Online was a PC MMORPG set in the world of Ascaron. Players took on the role of a Demigod leading the Pirate Coalition in a rebellion against the tyrannical forces of The Navy. The game's design emphasized old-school MMORPG values (grinding, guilds, open world PvP, raid encounters) modernized with contemporary UX and performance expectations.
Playable races: Dwarf · Triton · Runeborn · Amazonian
The full product vision, story, and visual language lives in the pro-web repository. The earlier social-media splash page is preserved in pro-splash.
