I'm really into Sunless Sea/skies right now. It's a cool Victorian/lovecraftian setting where England has sunk underground. The combat is pretty simple (the majority of the game is text based), but there's tons of lore to uncover.

Yeah I put a decent amount of time into Sea. Good game.

I've put 200 hours into sea, and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface. I have the early game quests down, but there's just so much to learn about the world and its history. Haven't even touched skies yet, but it's very high on my backlog. %100 worth the $15 it's on sale for.

Time to get Zubmariner, eh?

[–] Far-Offer-1305@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I have it. I've earned my zub liscence, but I haven't really done any diving (it's scary!!)

[–] MrHelfer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I backed it, and I got the whole deal... but I haven't had the time and peace of mind to really dive in.

I've been tempted to try to get to a Zub ... but I am not sure how to go about doing that, so it never happens.

(I'm a longtime Fallen London player, so I am some amount of invested in the setting)

Go to >!port carnelian on the south coast!< to get started and do a couple of fetch quests. Super easy. Bring >!at least 300 echoes!<. Then, your license gets passed on to future captains. You just need to pay to upgrade your new ships.

Whenever my hunger for the Zee gets to be overwhelming, I'll boot up the game and give it a whirl.

But Sunless Zee is ... intense. I can definitely find more relaxing games to play...
