    The game exhibits some stability issues, particularly when players are in a ship and encounter water interactions that can lead to unintended collisions with walls. Additionally, there are minor bugs that may be more noticeable to experienced players than to casual ones.

    • “Cons: a bit buggy, especially if you're in the ship and the water reaches you, pushing you into a wall. There are a few minor issues that us ocean liner enthusiasts will notice that the casual viewer may not (i.e., the time on the clock).”
