This is an amazing game with suprisingly comeplex combat and an engaging story! it can be extreemly frustrating on harder dificulties due to the limited saves.. but that's part of the fun!!

In a single sentence: Good game, but too much kraken. More in depth: I'm enjoying this game. It has a lot in common with Sunless Sea and FTL, two games I've enjoyed. but it does come off badly when compared to the former. I was disappointed by the narrative -- the lovecraftian elements (basically, domineering Cthulhu Daddy) aren't scary or unnerving. The Spider Islands are pretty much a Wish version of Saviour's Rocks, from Sunless Sea. The world and story just felt like a rather generic fantasy, without much depth. Luckily, the gameplay is pretty fun though it does get repetitive (too much kraken). I wished I had a few more options for directing my crew, like being able to assign a crewman to repairing hull cracks, or get my medic to go around and heal everyone without having to keep pausing in order to micromanage. I liked how each biome has different environmental hazards impacting combat. Though ship progression is pretty linear -- the more expensive ship is just better -- there's a lot of different builds when it comes to weapons and various combinations of weapons. There's also different game modes which also require slightly different approaches. On the main campaign, it's pretty easy to gather up the cash to upgrade everything (the earlier the better, before the game turns into Non-stop Kraken: The Krakening), but the shorter combat campaigns are more of a challenge. There's an element of RNG, sometimes, which can be frustrating. Overall, I'd recommend it if you're looking for a fun naval combat strategy game.

This game was deeply cathartic for me, though not as one might expect from the gameplay. I got around to playing Abandon Ship as I was going through a similar process in spirit as the main character goes through, making it even more personal than I expected when I wishlisted it years before. Meta themes, possible meta spoilers: It is a story of recognizing, escaping, and overcoming a Tyrannical Father, both without and within, a very real archetype of human experience. It also hints at the Devouring Mother as sequel material. As for the gameplay, there is some learning curve, with multiple chances given to avoid catastrophe upon failure (fleeing, lifeboats, chance-based events). But of course proper planning and preparation is a solid (but not guaranteed) defense. If you can dial in on a routine and optimal build for the many battles ahead, especially for a longer comprehensive playthrough, then you can listen to other things outside the game while you sail the seas. Music, podcasts, lectures, sermons, even shanties.

Like if FTL had a baby with Sid Meier's Pirates with some Lovecraft sprinkled in. Lovely graphics and fun gameplay. Just try not to get attached to your crew because the difficulty in this game is brutal. They will die. I'm playing on the easiest setting and I've still lost several crew members. I first tried it on Normal and lost my ship before I even managed to finish the tutorial.

A fun game, but it overstays its welcome. The first 10-14 hours were quite enjoyable. The last six or so had me wondering when the campaign would ever end.
