  • story
    34 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story revolves around managing three different ships across three campaigns, each featuring eight missions, including a special mission. However, players report significant technical issues, such as frequent freezes and unresponsive controls, particularly during the first mission, which detracts from the overall experience. While the variety of missions is appreciated, many find them tedious and lacking in depth, leading to frustration rather than engagement.

    • “There are 3 ships to take control of over 3 campaigns and 8 missions each: a large container ship, a floating crane, and a heavy-lift ship.”
    • “3 campaigns: cargo ship, oil rig builder, and heavy-lift ship, with 8 missions per ship plus one special mission with the rig and heavy-lift ship.”
    • “Great graphics and design, good dynamics, and many different types of missions to complete, recommended for anyone who loves simulation games.”
    • “I would have liked to play this game, but I tried 6 different times to get through the first mission with different graphics settings, and it freezes every time, so I can't get any further.”
    • “Some missions are completely unfinishable as the loads you pick up with cranes don't have physics, and the load generally attaches by 'magic'. Unfortunately, they have missions where you must place 2 objects next to each other.”
    • “The game could benefit from more variety in the missions.”
  • graphics
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the design and water effects as good, while others report significant issues such as crashes, freezing, and poor support for higher resolutions. Many users express frustration over the game ignoring graphic settings, leading to a subpar visual experience that does not match promotional materials. Overall, while some find the graphics enjoyable, technical problems detract from the experience for many players.

    • “Great graphics and design, good dynamics, many different types of missions to complete, recommended for anyone who loves simulation games.”
    • “Unusual gameplay, good graphics, nice management, indisputable advice for everyone!”
    • “I think this game is great for the price, graphics are good, water looks very good, a fun game.”
    • “I would have liked to play this game, but I tried 6 different times to get through the first mission with different graphics settings, and it freezes every time, so I can't get any further.”
    • “The game crashes if you have your graphics set to high, and if the game goes to deeper levels, it starts doing odd things like floating in mid-air objects like your ship!”
    • “Graphic settings are being ignored, no anti-aliasing, no screen resolution support for anything more than 1080p (graphics look worse than are being shown on the store page because of these problems), but even if you're unbothered by these details, the game crashes in the first mission, forcing you to repeat, and repeat again - until it crashes again.”
  • stability
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with multiple users reporting frequent freezes that render it nearly unplayable, particularly during specific missions. While a few players experienced no issues, the overwhelming feedback highlights significant bugs and performance problems that detract from the overall experience.

    • “I would have liked to play this game but I tried 6 different times to get through the first mission with different graphics settings and it freezes every time, so I can't get any further.”
    • “Very buggy, freezes frequently, barely playable.”
  • gameplay
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay experiences vary significantly, with some players praising the smoothness and engaging tasks, while others criticize the weak physics simulation and broken mechanics, particularly in ship and water interactions. Overall, the game offers a mix of enjoyable management elements and visual appeal, but it falls short in delivering a satisfying ship simulation experience.

    • “No problems whatsoever, smooth gameplay, a bit of thinking in some of the tasks.”
    • “Unusual gameplay, good graphics, nice management, I indisputably advise everyone to try it!”
    • “The game is weak in physics simulation; many mechanics are broken.”
    • “Boring and terrible ship and water mechanics for something that is supposed to be a 'ship simulator.' It's a waste of money.”
    • “The game is weak in physics simulation; many mechanics are broken.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users consistently praise the music in the game, highlighting its high quality and enjoyable presence throughout the long campaign, which enhances the overall experience.

    • “The music in the background really enhances the experience.”
    • “I love the soundtrack; it perfectly complements the gameplay.”
    • “The high-quality music adds so much to the overall atmosphere of the game.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the oil rig builder campaign tedious, primarily due to cumbersome crane controls that make missions feel repetitive and frustrating.

    • “My main complaint is the oil rig builder campaign; the controls of the cranes make the missions very tedious.”
