She finds herself trapped in the hold of a ghost ship, with only a skeletal butler to talk to. She soon learns that she must find a bunch of map pieces in order to go home again; explora the alternative destination is the island of lost souls. We are introduced via cut scenes to the nemesis, Baron Saturday, who bears an uncanny resemblance to the pirate LeChuck of Monkey Island fame. The resemblance is purely superficial, however; this villain explora has his own personality and agenda. Ultimately, Kid must collect the explora map pieces, defeat Baron Saturday, and steer the ship on a course for home. As you play the game, Kid must solve problems in each location of the ship to gain access to the next location. There is no backtracking; she cannot advance until she has completed puzzles in each location. While not difficult, there are some red herrings in the game, so it can be a little tricky at times; however, this is one game where an experienced adventure gamer should not need any hints and an inexperienced player will never get hopelessly stuck.
