The Real Review

This is a gorgeous, lonely sailing adventure that's unfortunately marred by weak gameplay and technical problems. People love the atmosphere and visuals, and the actual sailing feels peaceful, but the moment-to-moment gameplay loop is described as boring and the puzzles aren't compelling. The main issue is performance, especially on PC and Xbox platforms, where crashes and bugs seem rampant, which really hurts its value. It’s a beautiful, melancholy trip that only a patient, tech-tolerant sailor should consider.
