Wonderful narrative, great dialogue. The mystery is surprisingly tense. Character interactions aren't cringe, they are almost organic at times, but sometimes are so overly aggressive and rude that it throws you off a bit. Short and sweet, great game.

Why Am I Dead At Sea is the most unique game I've played as of late. The game is a bit rough around the edges, needing some polish to fix bugs here and there (minus the fact the game is almost 10 years old), but its personality and cleverness stands out above its faults. The game does have a lot of reading, but it's worth sticking through for the excellent cast of characters. The dialogue is wonderfully written, and each of their personalities feels realistic and fun. My only other gripe is that at times it felt there were too many dialogue options, which was starting to get tiring by the end. However, that was probably because I was exhausting every option instead of thoughtfully selecting them. If you're a fan of murder mysteries, give this game a go!

This is of the best mystery yarns I’ve read/played in ages, with a fun Earthbound-esque visual style and fun chiptune soundtrack. I picked it up thinking I’d just give it a try, and then devoured the entire game in a single day over the course of 5 hours. If I hadn’t already stayed up past midnight, I’d have unlocked the last 4 achievements. Exceptionally written, uniquely designed, and surprisingly moving, this dark tale is a STEAL at $5. If you were interested enough to click on the listing, just buy it. Right now. Do it, you coward.
