Take the helm of your steamship and set sail for the unknown! Sunless Sea is a game of discovery, loneliness and frequent death, set in the award-winning Victorian Gothic universe of Fallen London.
If the giant crabs, sentient icebergs and swarms of bats don’t get you, madness and cannibalism certainly will. But that old black ocean beckons, and there’s loot for the brave souls who dare to sail her.
Betray your crew, sell your soul to a Devil, marry your sweetheart. Survive long enough and you’ll achieve your life’s ambition.
Such a unique game. The mechanics are clunky and the grinding to acquire resources is often unbearable but the awesome atmosphere and writing more than make up for it.

I love this game. It is so wickedly dark.
I keep an eye out for the DLC to go on sale. Zubmarines.
Not for everyone, it is very, very hard to get started.
You will spend the first dozen games getting absolutely nothing and trying not to run out of food, fuel or cash.
