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. You will die, but your legacy will live on… KEY FEATURES - A deep, compelling world packed with 350,000+ words of stories and secrets. Find your father’s bones. Determine London’s destiny. Defy the gods of the deep sea. - Beautiful, hand drawn art: castles of sparkling ice, prisons perched on lily pads, fog-shrouded lighthouses and the DAWN MACHINE. - Your captain will die. But you can pass on resources from one generation to the next. Acquire a family home and a hoard of heirlooms. Build up your own story across generations of zailors who braved the sea and lost - or won... - Real-time combat against ships and Zee-beasts, spider-crewed dreadnoughts and sentient icebergs. - Light and dark, terror and madness: stray too far from the gas-lamps of civilisation and your crew will grow fearful and eventually lose their sanity. - Upgrade your steamship with powerful engines, cannons and pneumatic torpedo guns. (Or buy a bigger, better ship.) - Hire unique officers like the Haunted Doctor and the Irrepressible Cannoneer. Each has a story to tell, if you can draw it out of them. - Choose a ship’s mascot: the Comatose Ferret, the Wretched Mog, the Elegiac Cockatoo, and more! - Trade or smuggle silk and souls, mushroom wine and hallucinogenic honey. REVIEWS - “Absolutely the best writing in any video game since, well, as long as I can remember.” (10/10 – PCGamesN) - “A very compelling and satisfying adventure... The realm of possibilities seems endless, and every time I set sail I find something new.” (9/10 – Destructoid) - “Sunless Sea's method of storytelling isn't unique, but it has never been realised with such impact and elegance.” (10/10 – Eurogamer) Information Seller:Failbetter Games Genre:Adventure, Role Playing Release:Mar 22, 2017 Updated:May 26, 2017 Version:1.25 Size:509.6 MB TouchArcade Rating: User Rating: (6) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal That was... rather quick...

Kainamor Well-Known Member Dec 17, 2015 196 0 16 #3 Kainamor, Mar 28, 2017 Is this a price adjust or a sale, I can't seem to figure it out in the post yankeeblue000 Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2016 644 36 28 #4 yankeeblue000, Mar 28, 2017 Last edited: Mar 28, 2017 Whoa! I was just about to pick up DRTC till I seen this. Now I have to make a tough decision. I can only get one at the moment, but I'll eventually get the other one one day. The question is which one first!? Sash-O Well-Known Member Feb 13, 2015 1,570 0 0 Germany #5 Sash-O, Mar 28, 2017 Why mad? This happens with new game releases. You should be happy to play the game right from the start. Boobi Well-Known Member Oct 18, 2011 540 0 16 Earning money BC, Canada #6 Boobi, Mar 28, 2017 If its selling poorly what option does the developer have? Its not editors choice, not yet reviewed by TouchArcade, maybe a price drop will refresh it to the top of the queue list. From the games description and previous player post this is a large immersive game and developer most likely spent years developing, I doubt their goal was to do a price drop this fast, but if they are not selling then there is a formula and starts with price drop. Sash-O Well-Known Member Feb 13, 2015 1,570 0 0 Germany #7 Sash-O, Mar 28, 2017 You should buy Death Road to Canada, as the price will go up with every update & there won't be a sale at all.

It's now back to the original price in my region so it just might've been a really quick sale. (It's already past midnight of the 29th for me.) Papicus65 Active Member May 8, 2013 40 0 6 #9 Papicus65, Mar 28, 2017 Yeah, the whole THREE DAYS before the price dropped. Oh well, it's just 2 bucks I suppose. Will not instabuy from these guys next time. HotHamBoy Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2015 204 4 16 #10 HotHamBoy, Mar 28, 2017 That game is not going to have legs if the price continues to rise. Launch price is kinda high for mobile, especially with that model. BC1377 Well-Known Member Aug 23, 2016 346 0 16 #11 BC1377, Mar 28, 2017 Even though the price drop, the actual price still the same on indonesian appstore, but after seeing the sudden price drop, should i ask for a refund? Perhaps a week from now the price will drop 50%, who knows Yanagi Well-Known Member Sep 30, 2015 246 0 16 Medicine #12 Yanagi, Mar 28, 2017 Last edited: Mar 28, 2017 It probably dropped in price yesterday, but as mentioned in my previous post the price has since returned to the original in SEA territories because of time zones. In Australia, the cost has also reverted to the original. If I have to guess why this is so then it might be because the price drop was only scheduled to be up until March 28 at 23:59, or something close to that. Requesting for a refund is completely up to you. If the game is enjoyable then, to me, the $2 difference is very easy to swallow. It's difficult to say anything about future sales. While my name is seen around here often to remind others about price drops, I have also purchased numerous games at launch that dropped in price not long after. As long as I had fun playing it's ok. But if it wasn't fun, then seeking a refund doesn't sound too unreasonable. I would invoke a refund request. My personal rule when it comes to purchasing apps/games now is never put more money than you're willing to lose. It's difficult to rely on refunds often especially since you're never guaranteed a refund. (But then again, I would only purchase at launch if I genuinely find the game interesting and I can recoup any possible losses.) BC1377 Well-Known Member Aug 23, 2016 346 0 16 #13 BC1377, Mar 29, 2017 Ok, thanks for the input Gluskap Well-Known Member Sep 12, 2015 236 1 16 #14 Gluskap, Mar 29, 2017 Because it happened only ONE WEEK after release. I don't care how little the difference is. This shouldn't happen with new game releases NO MATTER WHAT! BC1377 Well-Known Member Aug 23, 2016 346 0 16 #15 BC1377, Mar 29, 2017 totally agree !!! wondroushippo ðð»carterðð» Patreon Bronze Jan 4, 2010 197 7 18 Male Ex-TA, now I do PR San Antonio, TX http://zombo.com #16 wondroushippo, Mar 29, 2017 Even at $10, you still saved half off of the game's price on Steam. It sucks for the price to drop so soon if you're an early adopter, but a bit of perspective is necessary here, Failbetter's not a massive corporation, and early adopters shouldn't be a suicide pact if the initial price was too high. yankeeblue000 Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2016 644 36 28 #17 yankeeblue000, Mar 29, 2017 What happened to the price drop? If this was a sale it was a flash sale. It didn't even last 24hrs hehe. I almost bought it. It was this or DRTC when they were at the same price. I went with the cheaper one for now BC1377 Well-Known Member Aug 23, 2016 346 0 16 #18 BC1377, Aug 29, 2017 On Sale for $5.99, worth it?
