Ron Gilbert's Scruvy Scallywags is Free Today

The Monkey Island creator's iOS pirate musical is free today (we assume in honor of National Talk Like a Pirate Day), and so you should go get the free booty.

Like all of Gilbert's work, it's a charming, funny game and well worth your time. Buy it at the iTunes store.

Our Take:
It's interesting how old-school developers like Gilbert and Sid Meier have taken a shine to the mobile market - perhaps it reminds them of the days when the mainstream game industry was a "try anything" Wild West.
