Our take on Uncharted Waters II
Its combination of exploration, battles, trading, and character choice gives up a single dominant focus. Players seeking only naval combat or only discovery will instead encounter several activities tied to different fame categories.
What is Uncharted Waters II?
Set mainly in 16th-century Europe during the age of exploration, Uncharted Waters II lets players choose from six characters, each with a different background.
The game tracks three kinds of fame: Adventure Fame from discovering ruins, Pirate Fame from winning battles, and Commerce Fame from buying and selling products. Players sail the seas for adventure and make friends with sailors from around the world. Originally released in 1993, it is the second game in the Uncharted Waters series. Its activities combine character selection, maritime travel, ruin discovery, battles, commerce, and encounters with sailors within a historical European setting.

Back to the Dawn focuses on surviving, investigating, and escaping a maximum-security prison, rather than sailing and building different kinds of fame.
