What players say

47% of 38,931 reviews are positive · 42% of 19 in the last 30 days

Players praise the shipbuilding, hands-on sailing, naval combat, large island world, and co-op play. The most common complaint is that development has stopped and official servers have closed; players call the game unfinished and buggy, while noting that private modded servers remain active.
