I'd like to start by saying that the game has good bones. The use and function of the ships and physics is all actually pretty good. However, for myself, like many other obviously, my experience with the game was pretty short. Optimization to make the game run smoothly took a while and still has random frame drops, and once you actually get into the game you run into the main problem. Game breaking bugs. In my case one of the first Career mission ended up getting hard locked to the point where I'd need to make a new character or un-install and re-install the game. And trying to do side missions or other content really didn't go much better. From what I've seen, this is the norm when playing through the career content. TLDR: Could be fun, but has a lot of game breaking issues that make the game reek of "Early Access" syndrome, where devs launch a game too early for it to feel like you're getting a functional product. It'll probably be pretty fun in a year or two hopefully.

Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Could be better, not what I was expecting as far as how everything seems confusing and the missions all feel the same.
Boring, only played for 9 minutes, controls sucked. Graphics are trash.
船舶物理一坨，驾驶仿真度也就有个五成（既不能艏侧推和车舵同时用，舵效也毫无物理仿真可言），装卸货纯纯街机小游戏，也没有做出缆绳相关的操作，锚也是只能当个手刹用，AI船逻辑灾难，经常莫名撞你或者挡在你必经之路撒好难过。这游戏也就是现在没平替要不然我玩一小时就退款了
This game is fundamentally broken. You signed on to be a sailor but you have to be a stevedore as well. Unions will complain. And the whole story thing is both flimsy and intrusive. Plus, the pre-set missions just keep the same time of day as when the last one ended. Thus, you often end up having to do missions that were obviously intended to be done in daylight but which the game just shoves you into in the same darkness that you ended your last mission. Do not buy.
The game is ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMMENDED for people who wants a realistic ship simulator kind. This is more like an arcade than a simulator. I regret buying this. Apart from the intense graphics, the physics is TERRIBLE. Big container ships can turn and accelerate like a small speed boat. The missions are very confusing where one of them requires you to sail from end to the other without autpilot and takes like 1 hr 40 mins sit infont of the controls. It has very high potential if: 1)Change the physics, this is the molst important thing to do 2)Ship autopilot system where it can turn at waypoints befiore reaching the waypoints like a flybywire system it will make ship turns very smooth and realistic 3)Before doing bigtrips, player has to add 6 containers onboard the ship and u have to sail with 6 containers like wth, afcter loading fill the ship with contaimners to increase realism 4) binoculars wont zoom in and out
Dieses Spiel ist momentan so von Bugs durchzogen, dass Fortschritt in der Karriere unmöglich ist. Zudem sieht das Wetter (vorallem der Wetterwechsel) absolut schlecht aus und die Physik der Schiffe fühlt sich an wie kleine Gummienten in der Badewanne.
game is broken crashes during start up
A decent attempt at making a simulator, but unfortunately the mechanics are really bad. The graphics are also questionable, especially when the boat is moving through the water. The controls are terrible, and I won't even get started on the perspective when you're actually steering the boat. Overall, the experience is very disappointing. I really regret not requesting a refund in time. I kept thinking the game would be improved with future updates, but unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case. **Definitely not worth buying.** **Rating: 1/10**
started out ok but now it's all about loading and unloading cargo.
