July 2025
This game is extremely immersive. The devs have been doing actually meaningful updates to the game. They have been consistently improving and adding new features as they follow their roadmap. The co-op is fun and they are working to improve it more. The graphics are very good along with the physics and interaction. Keep up the good work! it's been a pleasure so far!

This is a strange one. I'll recommend it but early buyers need to know what they're getting. Scenery is MUCH improved, and I love that I can walk around and do things. You CAN save, but not by clicking the Save. You need to autosave, and load from the autosave instead of the Continue. This is one of those odd things which makes one wonder how it got past testing. Ship upgrades are listed as disabled pending early access. Even though it IS early access? Again, how did this get past testing? Physics have improved compared to (almost non-existent water physics in) Fishing North Atlantic and Barents, but there are very strange things going on which I think are unlike real-world physics, need tweaking. So for example, the screen is indicating a 6 knot wind, which is Beaufort 2 and should be flat water with wavelets but I'm fighting Beaufort 7 gale sized waves. Another example, those gale force waves are happening even in wind-protected harbors. And bouncing off the wharf with such force that it makes approaching the wharf difficult to impossible. The effect is as if, even in safe harbor, the massive waves are coming from every direction, which is only possible in very few places on earth (e.g. where South Atlantic meets Antarctic oceans). I think the physics need to be tweaked so that when waves bounce off walls, they diminish in energy. Also, modify the physics so safe harbors always have less wave action than what is encountered at sea in a gale, due to wind shelter effect. The strangest thing, for me, is this seems to be a complete build from scratch, rather than taking existing mechanics and UI which worked in Fishing North Atlantic and Barents and porting them over. So there is no fast travel, for example, despite the VAST distances. The UI on the Fishing series was at least a bit more polished, why not borrow that? And why can't I just anchor and fast forward the time (which would have been handy in waiting out gale force winds before approaching harbor). But despite this, I do enjoy the game and hope the devs continue to build it up. Don't give up. This is a good one, has a lot of promise and potential, which you know when something is really fun even in current state.

I refunded the game and got Fishing North Atlantic instead, which is, suprisingly, a really good game. I will return to SAS once there have been some more patches. Right now it is just too buggy and unpolished, but there is potential. The game needs NPCs, more to do, more to achieve, more to discover, more to interact with. Minigames have to be fluid and not wonky.

It angers me so much that people are leaving bad reviews saying it's buggy, to all those people: do you even know what an early access game is? Yes it's buggy, yes there is limited content. But if you would do the least amount of effort to look at their trello roadmap you'll see that there is so much content planned, and not even everything is on there. The early access sign isn't there for decoration you know. I know some games do that to hide the fact that it's buggy as hell and not want to fix it but not these guys. They listen to the community and if there is a bug you can address it in their discord instead of straight up leaving bad reviews. This game looks gorgeous and for ship enthusiasts sailing for hours is not a chore but an experience and fun. Updates will come eventually and I look forward to them very much.
