About
Captain your fishing trawler to explore a collection of remote isles, and their surrounding depths, to see what lies below. Sell your catch to the locals and complete quests to learn more about each area’s troubled past. Outfit your boat with better equipment to trawl deep-sea trenches and navigate to far-off lands, but keep an eye on the time. You might not like what finds you in the dark...
Starting from your new home in the remote archipelago, ‘The Marrows’, take to the water and scour the depths for curious collectables and over 125 deep sea denizens. Explore each area while completing quests and visiting neighbouring island regions – each with their own unique opportunities, inhabitants, and secrets.
Someone wants you to dig up the past, but can you trust them and will it ever be enough?
Danger is everywhere, so watch for sharp rocks and shallow reefs, though the biggest threats of all lurk within the fog that cloaks the night-time seas...

It is a fun game. I seriously get lost in playing it. Time passes so fast that I can't believe hours go by.
best game ever
Buena trama, buen gameplay, un apartado visual excelente y una banda sonora a la altura. Qué juegazo.
Ovviamente stupendo ci sta il pesce grongo
Great lovecraftian exploring game. I haven't encountered the DLC yet but the base game is great, good progression feel and lots of things to do and places to go. 9/10
very scary fish for a very scary fish game
The UI mostly ruined the game for me. I didn't know you couldn't turn quest items in from you storage so I collected all the main quest items thinking I needed them all to continue, just to turn them all in and complete the game 2 minutes later, didn't get to use any of the skills/spells. There's way too many time wasting things with the UI. Some things that take 1/4 a second on mouse will take 5 seconds on controller. Why is there no hotkey to take from crab pots or pick them up? Why is blowing up a wall 10 seconds of dialogue instead of just 2 button presses. If you press down when you dock too quickly the fish selling UI doesn't pop up fast enough and you jump over it and fast forward time instead. There's a hotkey to sell all trinkets but it doesn't work if they're in your storage, so you have to manually transfer them to your inventory to press sell all. You can't buy crab pots from the shipyard and instead they're at the fishmonger, why??? And then you don't repair them there you go back to the shipyard, are you stupid??? If it was just 1 of these things I'd be like yeah ok but they were all kinda annoying me after 3 hours, and especially the main story item things storage, so lame. World is great, story is light, runs fantastic, fishing is fishing but I appreciate multiple minigames instead of just one. Tame/easy fish collection log, probably not too hard to get them all. Research seemed kinda dumb, why am I researching something but then have to buy it form someone else? Upgrades are easy, sometimes you need to look around for some stuff for a little bit. Some good camera and control settings

I really wanted to love this game and to recommend it to others... But I can only do so to those that haven't played Sunless Sea and just want a more casual experience.
