    TRIVIA
    Pirate Ship Higemaru was released in September 1984.

    This game features one of the first game soundtracks composed by Tamayo Kawamoto, who made also other Capcom 80's BGM. She now works at Taito: she's a member of Zuntata, the popular (well, in Japan) Taito band where she plays keyboards.
