Dread Nautical

Fun tactics game with cute art style and Lovecraftian lore. Wide variety of quirky characters with unique personality and abilities. Not much of a story but enough to provide a backdrop for the game and build some interest. Possibly not enough depth for tactics gameplay to entice experienced tactics players. Most achievements aren't too difficult. Overall a solid game for someone who enjoys Lovecraftian themes and is looking for a more semi-casual tactics game.

Everything about this game is done extremly well

I've only played for an hour or so, but so far it's pretty cool. Amazing voice over from the demon voiced narrator person. Basic turn based combat. Scavenging supplies is fun. 4 different characters. Suprisingly interesting story. I really love all the nautical themed games coming out.

Solid little game. A tad clunky, but most indie/ports are. Nothing ruined my experience. All in all, a fun game.👍

This is, by far measures, a sweet sweet gem of a game. I'll admit, it took me a second to process how well made this game is solely because there seems to be a saturated market of turn based rougelikes and about a billion "lovecraftian" themed games out there. That's not even mentioning the X-com clones. Dread Nautical is all of these, and manages to stand out with its unique art style, replayability, and just a wicked sense of humour. The UI might seem daunting at first, but once you understand it, it all clicks. AI is not too punishing, but does keep you on your toes, and best of all there's a fun story where you want your survivors to survive. This is the manifestation of my childhood dreams of what the cruise liner missions in X-com 2: Terror from the Deep just told from the passengers point of view. Buy it.😍
