Dominate the open seas during the Age of Sail. Engage in historic naval battles with famous commanders and admirals commanding fleets of periodic era ships. Defeat Lord Nelson at Trafalgar, capture the French Corsair Robert Surouf, break the British Embargo of 1812.

Embargo is a 3D naval combat game designed exclusively for the iPhone/iPod Touch. Take command of periodic era ships as you engage 24 historical opponents in epic naval battles during the late 18th and early 19th century. With immersive gameplay and special effects (cannon smoke, burning fires, smoke trails, flying debris, water splashes etc), and a fully licensed soundtrack, youll swear that you can almost taste the sea and smell the gunpowder.

Youll need to master the winds and devise cunning naval strategies to outwit historic opponents. Enemy ships will maneuver and weave with grace, and if you let your guard down for a moment, youll find yourself surrounded by enemy ships, iron cannons blasting away at you. Slugging away full broadside, although messy, may work against lone opponents, but when faced with a fleet of enemy ships, youd better revise your tactics. Only the ablest navigators will be victorious.
