Reviews
- This is a nice relaxing sailing game with fantastic sailing information baked in.
- Great for introducing young children to sailing controls in a fun way.
- For the price, it's quite a decent simulator that offers basic sailing mechanics.
- Controls are difficult and unrealistic, making it frustrating to play.
- The tutorial does not effectively teach how to sail, leaving beginners confused.
- Graphics and overall content feel basic, making it seem more like a mobile port than a full PC game.

The graphics are described as basic and only "okay-ish," yet they sufficiently support gameplay, allowing for a realistic experience of controlling the boat in the wind. Overall, while not impressive, the visuals are deemed adequate for the game's mechanics.
“The controls and graphics are basic, but good enough to let you control the boat with what feels like realistic wind.”
“Graphics are okay-ish.”

Users report significant stability issues, particularly when using the keyboard for controls, leading to difficulties in turning and frequent bugs related to character movement, such as keeling over or colliding with objects.
“No way to turn correctly using only the keyboard; it's buggy when it comes to keeling over or hitting things.”
