Avast!  Pieces of Eight announced

Listen up, me hearties! A new pirate adventure will soon be weighing anchor, as independent developer Hidden Sanctum has announced development on Pieces of Eight.

A first-person point-and-click adventure, Pieces of Eight is a modern day tale of hunting for the lost booty of eight notorious pirates off the New England coast. Having amassed untold riches, these pirates disappeared suddenly and without a trace in 1722, their treasure vanishing with them. In time, "rumors of an elaborate underground complex filled with treasure on one of the islands off the coast slowly fades from memory... undiscovered. Nearly 300 years have passed and the stories have all but been forgotten. That is, until you receive a package with cryptic clues about a mysterious island off the coast of New Hampshire."

To see the video teaser and learn more about Pieces of Eight, be sure to check out the game's official website. X marks the spot.

The game is currently scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2007.
