Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Game Boy AdvanceAction
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is a 2003 action-platform adventure for the Game Boy Advance, developed by Pocket Studios and published by Disney Interactive. It adapts the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, placing players in the role of Captain Jack Sparrow as he pursues the stolen Black Pearl and confronts the cursed crew commanded by Captain Barbossa. The game uses side-scrolling exploration, sword fighting, jumping, and light puzzle solving across stages inspired by the film. Its compact presentation and straightforward action suited the handheld format, though contemporary reception was mixed, with reviewers commonly describing it as a serviceable licensed platformer rather than a particularly ambitious adventure.

How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.

| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
