Or try testing your skill with a cutlass against that of Hammerhead Hannah, a fearless pirate princess whom even the bravest of buccaneers dare not cross! And anyone who considers himself clever should try matching wits with the Ingenious Genie, a little rascal who can easily get the better of you with a simple wave of his hand.
