I haven’t found many VR games I love yet (for Oculus Go), but this one is really fun! It takes a little time to understand and I’m still learning, but that shows the depth of the game. I haven’t figured out how to use the magic spells for example. Great game and it would be awesome if the meeting cabin room (map rooms) changed each time you upgraded boats. Great work on this game!!

This game is so much fun the first few times you play it. Part of that is the thrill of knowing you will get bigger and better ships that will take you further. That is all a lie. This game is 5% choice, 10% clicking a button at the right time, and 85% random number generation. This means only 15% of the outcome has any bearing on what you have done as a player, and everything else is out of your control. Each new ship comes with something better than the last, and something worse...what is the point if it's not actually better? Resources cannot be exchanged and they are horribly imbalanced. Having 50% and 75% chances for getting diseases with no way to cure them is ridiculous. Then it's more random numbers if your crew dies from those diseases. But if you skip all shipwrecks and question mark areas, you likely will not be able to purchase the things you need. Food is 2 to 1 against gold which is madness considering you only get about 250-300 gold per game. Add in that you need cannons, crew, or other items amid a rotten rng system, the experience becomes sour and annoying. But wait there is more! You can click other rooms by mistake very easily. Many times on bigger ships you cannot select your captain or upper rooms without firing the cannons. Crew can get stuck behind statues on your ship. You can accidentally choose your ship on the map while clicking on a point above your ship to move to. When you go into your ship and come back out, the other ships change positions and usually are set to mess you up. Most of the time, for no reason, you cannot select your ship. To be fair, I spent hours playing this. But also to be fair, that is how I know this game is simply and completely rubbish.

I was suspect at so many five-star reviews, but they are warranted! Great game and I will keep playing. Recommend.

Very low Gold gains, Always losing tons of food or ammo. No or few crewmen that dies like flies. Travel Costs way too much food.
