Seafarer: The Ship Sim

Ship handling is accessible but responds to dynamic weather and shifting ocean currents, so navigating a loaded tanker through rough seas takes different judgment than piloting a small patrol boat. Players use cranes to load and unload cargo, water cannons to fight onboard and dockside fires, and a scout drone to survey surroundings before committing a larger vessel to a route.

A story campaign follows Teddy, a captain with a troubled past, as sabotage, piracy and old secrets surface across the harbors he visits. Outside the campaign, players build a fleet and a reputation by completing cargo runs, rescue calls and firefighting jobs. Ship appearance is customizable with names, colors, flags and logos, and up to four people can crew missions together in cooperative play.

• Dynamic Weather and Currents Ocean currents and changing weather affect handling, so the same route sails differently from one voyage to the next.
• Multiple Vessel Types Players move between small boats, cargo carriers and tankers, each with its own handling and cargo capacity.
• Onboard Tools Cranes, water cannons and a scout drone let the crew load cargo, fight fires and survey routes ahead.
• Cooperative Crew Play Up to four players can crew the same ship together, splitting duties across a single voyage.
