Ahoy me hearties, swab the deck turning all the squares the same colour gathering loot as you go. Collect the gold, the chests, and the magical puzzle boxes, but avoid the scurvy brutes at all costs, lest ye meet ya doom!

Objective
What you're supposed to do in this game
Deckswabber is very simple to understand - playing it is the hard part. You are a pirate blumaroo on a quest to get the treasure. Sounds pretty simple, until other pirates begin chasing you, trying to chop you into little ity-bity pieces. The worst part? - there's no way to kill them. You can only run away and attempt to finish the level. There is a large square, with more squares in it. The object is to land on everyone of those sqaures and turn them blue (in some levels you have to go over them twice and turn them gold) before dying from the pirates. You must use the arrow keys to navigate your player around the board.
Objects
Things that bounce around the board. Beware
There are some things that bounce around the board that are good. Here is a list of the ones I know of so far.
- White Flag With a Red Cross: This gives you health.
- A Mysterious Box: From what I've seen, it doesn't give you anything.
- Dubloons: Dubloons give you gold, which you need. Gomble them up before they disappear!
Health
Everything you need to know about your health
The green flag beside your board repesents your health. The lower the flag, the lower your health. Check it often and remember to get the white flag with with the red cross as often as you can, it will raise your health! If you are unfortunate to die, you can restart the level you are on up to 3 times. But in doing so, you will lose 30 points.

Here is your game board. I have highlited important things and given information on which each section does. The yellow highlighted squares are the squares I have moved across.
Game Tips
Things to keep in mind when playing the game
- When you see the floor beginning to open on one of the squares, run far away. There is usually a pirate or bomb that is seeking your blood.
