Why Am I Dead At Sea

IDK HOW TO GET ANY OTHER ENDING OTHER THAN LIVING NIGHTMARE the game is underrated af needs more attention

Jogão, fiquei envolvido com a história do começo ao fim. A soundtrack, ambientação e os diálogos são muito bem feitos. Cada personagem é único e com histórias muito interessantes. Passei um ótimo tempo tentando solucionar o mistério :D

Wonderful narrative, great dialogue. The mystery is surprisingly tense. Character interactions aren't cringe, they are almost organic at times, but sometimes are so overly aggressive and rude that it throws you off a bit. Short and sweet, great game.

What a cute little gem of a game. "Why am I Dead at Sea" is a very interesting title. Kind of reminds you of what anime titles look like today with their long structure. But this murder mystery pixel game is worth a one time play through by most people. How did I come to play this? Well I was browsing through my inventory and forgot I had bought this game to gift. So I just ended up gifting it to myself 9 years later, and boy what a rabbit hole I went down. You wake up as a ghost, someone murdered you aboard this ship. Who you are, is a mystery at first. A small boy is like the narrator as he greets you appearing to him to tell you how to be a ghost. You possess people + one cute little kitty cat, to learn about how you died. Each person you possess has a special ability. Some can tell what others are thinking (scary some of the visuals of the minds were), while others can look inside keyholes on doors, see inside of pockets or scan the rooms for clues. While some just are there to enhance the arc of the characters you take control of. Each person aboard the ship has a struggle of their own and the more you learn of these struggles, the more down to earth this game feels as humans with similar flaws. Oh but don't forget, you're trying to catch a murderer + solve a mystery of who dun it! One girl is paranoid, and you come to find out why in a sad way. Another is a writer, but her fate has been sealed, seriously depressing. Oh and the old guy on the deck, man...I did not see that coming at all. These are some examples of what you'll find. Each character was crafted so well in terms of character build, not two of them are ever alike. Their growth is seen throughout the game and was done extremely well, I was rooting for some people while I said to myself a few times "I wouldn't mind If they disappeared" as the feels are real. It was why this made me sit down & want to complete the game after my first hour in. The music in this game is also very well done. I didn't mind it at all and it would change up based on the character you were controlling and how the room or person in that room made you feel. Some were creepy, some were peaceful, it really built the world better. The progression in this game is linear but you could miss important clues if you don't pay attention before progressing to the next chapter. If you get stuck, the kid in the bedroom who helped you out, will give you clues. It doesn't hold your hand at all, he's just there if you get stuck. In terms of how you progress, you don't just get options to possess just anyone. You first have to unlock a character, then there's an option on almost all characters to "fully possess" them which is like having a super power with new forms of dialogue for others. Make sure you don't miss any speech bubbles above other characters heads. That's how you know you haven't heard everything. For some characters you'll need to click on objects or read a diary. While some you'll need a key or a password for. So it's worth talking and looking through things. This game isn't hard to learn at all, nor is it going to just be a walk in the park. Let's just say it was where it was meant to be. Just right in terms of speed and difficulty. The game I finished within 4 1/2 hours but because I wanted to get all achievements, my total time was 5.8 hours. And I was only partially right on who done it, so that made me happy. I highly encourage a guide for achievement hunting because you could miss a few things. For the most part I only needed it for the ending achievements in the final chapter. But the true ending was crazy and knowing no one was safe leading up to it, was thrilling. I'd recommend you to try this game and for $5 dollars, it's well worth it just for the narrative part. I feel some could say this is a good game for inspiring people with creativity.

Yeah, it's pretty good.

Great mystery game with an intricate story. It's like clue, but you're solving your own murder!

It's broken. Characters can get randomly, permanently stuck in ways that block access to other parts of the map, and this will completely softlock you. There is no fix, and the dev likely never will resolve the issue.

I really love the ghost possession mechanics and the mystery-solving in this game. I feel like it is a unique experience that I haven't gotten from other games. Lots of quirky characters! Definitely one I like to go back to!

A really fun sequel! I adored the original game, and this was a great continuation.
