How it feels

A slow, methodical ship repair sim with a heavy Lovecraftian atmosphere where you manage a business inherited from your father.

What players say

Players describe it as a job simulator with a lovecraftian horror twist, but many say bugs and UI problems hurt the experience. Some praise the core cleaning and repair loop, while others are frustrated by a required fishing mechanic introduced in an update. The demo was better received than the current early access build.
