Game description:

(From the Infocom Home Page)

Plundered Hearts is set in the late 1600s, where you are living the genteel life of a beautiful young Englishwoman. You have received news that your dear father is ailing, and so you are travelling to the West Indies to care for him. As the story opens, the ship you are aboard is attacked by pirates, and you are carried off by the dashing pirate captain! But this does not dissuade you from your determination to find your father. Along the way, you shall encounter danger, adventure ... and more than a touch of romance.


Trivia:

(From the Infocom Home Page)

It contained an "elegant velvet reticule" (blue pouch) containing: a 50 guinea note and a letter from Jean Lafond.


What I think:

Excellent text-adventure, that doesn't need to hide itself. ;)
