Play as the captain of a steamship on an underwater ocean surrounding the fictional city of Fallen London. Manage your ship's fuel and food supplies as you try not to go mad fighting off Lovecraftian monsters.
Sunless Sea is a brutal roguelike with amazing plots and writing that still hold up years later, but if you're looking to explore the Unterzee, the Switch port is not the way to go.
A blend of horror, humor, and deep-sea exploration, Sunless Sea surpasses a few shortcomings to deliver an engaging, inventive, and challenging indie experience.
Amazing writing and a good sense of discovery makes Sunless Sea's glacial pace and mismatched roguelike elements worth plodding through.
An extremely good game which just doesn't feel properly finished. It's not quite a final draft. It's still damned good fun though.
Sunless Sea is a little darker and less cheerful than its already morbid sister Fallen London, but it's no less delightful. The Unterzee is awash with clever, well-written stories, and you're sure to find something new every time you set sail – even if actually finding it can take a while.
