“There's zero storyline or progression of any kind.”
“There are no specific missions or anything; that sounds kind of boring, and it's not as good as Aces of the Deep was.”

The gameplay is highly praised for its nostalgic feel reminiscent of classic subsim games like "Silent Service 2," enhanced by improved graphics and realistic sea movement and weather systems. Players appreciate the quick installation process and find the game engaging, making it a strong recommendation for fans of the genre. However, some users have experienced issues with crashes in previous titles, which they hope are not repeated here.
“This is a superb subsim game that takes me back to the 80s and 90s, playing Silent Service 2 for months on end. It is so much like it, although with much better graphics and gameplay, featuring the movement of the sea and various weather systems.”
“I have played the Silent Hunter series (3, 4, and 5) but never got far as they continuously crashed to desktop. I bought this game through Steam early this morning and have been playing it ever since. The install was extremely quick on my gaming PC, completed in less than 30 seconds.”
“For those who want to know about the keyboard options, press the help button on the main menu, which I didn't do at first but found out later. I would certainly recommend this to other fans of subsim games.”
