This is one of my favorite games, but also not for everyone. If you like an sandbox sailing game, that has no enemies, but is both punishing and calm. This may be the game for you. I love to pretend I'm a tea trader, sailing my brig along the trade winds, searching for new ports to sell my wears. The Challenge: This game has no pause menu map that tells you where you are. You use real 16/17th century tech using the stars and sun to dead recon your location. Crossing the open ocean is a major feat. Remembering to pack enough food and water for the journey. Spending over a week in game without seeing land, weathering tremendous storms, and hoping you are still on course. Then finally seeing a small speck on the horizon, feeling an immense sense of relief and accomplishment is one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I've ever felt. The Peaceful: Lots of down time, the game adds activities to do while on long voyages. Aside from adjusting your sails and plotting your location, the game has activities like mopping and cleaning your ship, a comprehensive decorating mechanic, the ability to smoke from your pipe, cook food, fishing, make tea/coffee, and make sure your survival meters are taken care of, and get as drunk as a sailor. Some people may find this part boring, and i get that. But I find it adds the the sim aspect of this game. Real sailing back then was a mostly boring job, with rare moments of excitement and danger. So if this all sounds like something you would be into, then join us on the high seas and make your fortune!

Learned how to sail....had about 30 hrs in game. Decided to do a longer multi-day journey at sea to a far away island chain. -Packed up my ship with cargo, food, water and navigation equipment. Outfitted it with new larger sails... -Raise the sails, and start leaving port. -Underestimate the wind push from my new sails...Under turn. -Sideswipe another docked ship as I try to steer away. -Bow of my ship is driven under the larger docked ship and my entire ship tips over and fills with water. -Sink a few feet from the pier. -Amazing experience. 10/10.

The most important thing I can put into this review is that this game may not be for you - there are no pirates, no sea monsters, there are no enemies, no guns and no swords. However, what there is is the beauty of seafaring that has captured weekend-captains and true salty sailors alike: There is you and the ocean. This game encapsulates the feeling of being on your own, out with yourself on the waves perfectly. And when all you hear through your headphones is the wind blowing across your sails and the waves smashing into your hull you will have found it - your moment of Zen. This game captures it perfectly. If this is for you, you will never truly leave this game. If what you're looking for is adrenaline and a constant stream of new things to do, look somewhere else. To me, this game is pure perfection.

Almost refunded it as i found it boring, slow and empty at first But then gave it another chance the next day. Started slow, taking missions, learning how the game works, grinding for money to learn and begin trading. Now I completed my first transoceanic voyage with a huge profit rolling in and i love every moment of the game. Having tools to actually do navigation for yourself and spotting land after a 11 day voyage across the ocean is an unforgettable moment of the game. Also you have to learn how to sail ships but it's not that hard. Though there's a lot, i mean A LOT of ship customization for any kind of rigging you want so... The graphics are simple and i'd like some more realistic one but it's good and actually looks beautiful at times Ships are slow, distances are large, most of the time there's nothing to do. That's when you can pass time by cleaning the ship, fishing, prepping, cooking food, plotting course or just texting your friends as you sail on. Other times the fury of the high seas strikes on you with brutal storms and towering waves and you have to actively fight both the waves and the winds to avoid capsizing and sinking, losing all your precious cargo, giving you no break from the thrill. I realized this game is exactly what i was looking for a long time. A game where you sail, navigate, manage your ship, pack your ship full with cargo and just trade and explore. I recommend it for virtual seafarers who aren't looking for 0/24 action. It's a relaxing game.
