App Description

Ahoy Matey! Perfect for your little pirate fan and a great way to experience high-res images and original audio from the 3-D animated film, The Pirates! Band of Misfits follows the luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain - a boundlessly enthusiastic, if somewhat less-than-successful, terror of the High Seas. With a rag-tag crew at his side, and seemingly blind to the impossible odds stacked against him, the Captain has one dream: to beat his bitter rivals Black Bellamy and Cutlass Liz to the much coveted “Pirate Of The Year Award.”

Shiver me timbers! Now every day is “Look Like a Pirate Day” with the fun and silly “Piratize Yourself” feature that utilizes iOS 5 face detection to turn all landlubbers into a Pirate in real time. This feature is only available on devices running iOS 5 or higher.

Featuring Auto Play, Read To Me, and Read To Myself narration options, readers will also be in search of eight hidden treasures that they need to collect in order to win the coveted “Pirate of the Year Award.”

Features character audio from Hugh Grant as the Pirate Captain.
