Weather and environmental conditions affect your battles: Tidal waves, lightning strikes, volcanic bombardments and blizzards are just some of the modifiers that impact your strategy. Abandon Ship focuses on ‘Age of Sail’ ships in a Fantasy setting, framed in an Art Style inspired by classic Naval Oil Paintings.
SHIP DESTRUCTION IS NOT THE END
Life in this world can be brutal. Death is permanent. But the journey doesn’t end if your vessel is destroyed. You are the Captain, and as long as the Captain is alive, there is always hope. By escaping to a Lifeboat, or even being stranded, alone in the water, there is a chance to survive and fight your way back to the top.
SNATCH VICTORY FROM THE JAWS OF DEFEAT
Combat is tactical and savage. Each battle is hard-fought, always on the edge of defeat. Your only chance of overcoming the odds is to employ every advantage you can bring to bear.
Dozens of diverse weapons and upgrades are available to utilise on the various ship classes you can acquire. Customise your vessels appearance by capturing enemy ships intact. Your trusty crew gain experience and traits to help provide an edge over the enemy.
REAP WHAT YOU SOW
Explore a fantasy world that reacts to your actions. Engage in piracy and become a hunted Captain. Undertake quests that may drastically change the environment – or the entire world. Make decisions that create allies or enemies that return to help or seek vengeance.
Play multiple stories, including the main campaigns tale of overthrowing a Cthulhu-esque Cult, a Freeplay mode about rebuilding the legacy of your forebears, and shorter tales, such as the combat campaign focused on rescuing your sister, or Sword of the Cult, where you play as one of Father’s children, climbing the ranks until you’re granted the ultimate weapon: The Kraken.

Based on very little play..... Good start. Fun, intriguing story. May be a little cliché (unsuspecting chosen one saves world). Time will tell. Presumably, battle tactics and complexity will increase.

Absolutely awesome game with many hours of gameplay. The only quality of life thing I'd add is a default aiming option, so you can just click on it and then all the cannons and mortars autoaim the place you set up.

Seemed like fun until the tutorial UI blocked the part you have to touch in other to proceed when buying and installing weapons. No way to get past the part at all since you can't skip the tutorial message and it's blocking what you need to click.

A fantastic game. The art style looks amazing and the sea battles are really intense and atmospheric. You get a very decent length trial to decide whether you like the game before buying it. The user interface works brilliantly on small screen devices and it runs perfectly on my Galaxy A52. Very highly recommended.

Great game, but just needs to be optimized more. After a few battles the game slows down and one has to exit and re-enter the game. Sometimes this happens when you transition between the various maps as well. Doubt it was properly play tested for mobile.

The game is Amazing!! Idk if I'm the first to play it but I'll happily say that I am enjoying every detail, each map location is different then the other, the ports are amazing in features, and so many different activities, I've been waiting for a game like this for so long!! Thank you developers or developer

I like the game. There are minor UI issues. It can be a little wonky at times, and some parts of the dialogue can be confusing because of how it is worded. Like the dev used spell check but didn't proof read. The story is interesting, and the battles are fun.

Great idea and gameplay setup. But the fact that you basically let the player get through 4 stages, which is basically a long tutorial and then say the demo is over and want $8.50 +tax to play the game is absurd IMO. And thats not even the full experience, you want more money for the DLC. Had you priced it mor reasonably, $3.99 or even 4.99, i may have purchased it to keep going if there was more in the demo, but nah bro, i will spend my cash elsewhere. Even minecraft, doesnt ask for $15...

I would have gave 5 stars if not for the fact that after playing for over a week and logging in around 25hrs to 30hrs of gameplay out of nowhere when I continue from my last save the game starts to crash and close one I leave to a new area of try to save. now if I load a CPT. log book save, it will let me switch areas for a while then it will start to crash again. since I don't have any more CPT.'s log books I can not press anymore in the game.

Dropped to 3 star because there's a weird glitch that if you move your crew to the other ship when the enemy is trying to pull away and you make it into their ship you get stuck when the monster guy jumps onto your own ship but the space is too wide for him to jump back over. I've had to exit without saving several times because of this.

Fantastic, fun and complex combat that is designed for mobile UI. Feels really polished Edit: There is a bug where it says Internet connection required even if you have the play pass. Only works if you open the app through the play store

This is an interesting game. I enjoy the story and dialogue. There is a lot of strategy involved. I do find it challenging selecting enemy crew members during boarding. Icons get stacked on top of another making selection difficult. I played this on a phone though. Maybe a tablet would be easier.

Lose all progress because for some pointless reason you only get one chance to save your game before "death is permanent" and it's not explained you never or rarely get more logs to use before you use it. I got trapped into the kraken boss battle before I was ready and there was zero way to escape. So I lost a put 9 hours of gameplay because you're not allowed to save *anytime* you get to a port

The graphics are really nice here. I would really recommend playing on the big screen and enjoy the smoothness and diversity of colors. And I totally love how the gameplay drags you in instantly - naturally, warring ships, what more would you want? This is pure delight as soon as you go up that learning curve - very much recommended for strategy lovers, explorers, and sailing ship enthusiasts.

Very good quality. It is only a demo for free, but I am more than happy to pay for a game this good. Manages to balance FTL gameplay with the theme incredibly well. Graphics are good, gameplay is good, my only complaint is that the controls can be a little fiddly on such a small mobile screen but that would change depending on what you have.

I'm really enjoying playing this game. the depth of weapons, upgrades and ship layouts makes the combat very enjoyable. the map is large and full of events. there's plenty of side quests to make gold for buying new ships. the only thing that dissapointed me is the biggest ship you can buy still only has 8 crew members, I'd like to have a larger crew qt that point but all in all if you enjoy pirate games this is a must play.

The game is fun and interesting to play. You wander around running from a kraken and can choose to be the good pirate or the bad pirate. One mechanic made me decide stop playing the game: the diary. Although I found 3 of them, only one was available to me. I used it and wandered around 10 maps, made a mistake and lost my ship. The save point was too distant and it was very frustrating. I was super close to change ships after farming through those maps. Save points should be more frequent...

I really enjoyed this game! The premise is intriguing and the story sucked me in. Ship battles can be quite satisfying, and there are many different, equally viable strategies. Enemy factions actually feel differentiated from each other. I highly recommend! Having said that, I do believe the game could use some work in certain areas. Specifically: the UI can be a bit finicky/unintuitive, the economy needs some balancing, and there's so much combat that it eventually becomes a nuisance.

Promising game, but I can't move out of the tutorial because of a design flaw. It's happening when I'm in my first port and trying to install the cannons- the dialog box is over the place where I'm supposed to click to add cannons, so I'm stuck and can't move forward. Glad to re-review when a fix is made.

this game is really fun, no ads, no bs. once you make it through the 10 min tutorial, read all the things, get frustrated because you just want to play but the game is still telling you stuff, it's fantastic. there are a lot of great UX additions, I was surprised there's no select all, so every time you go to board you have to tap on every icon in bottom right. also would have loved to pre-set all my guns to target stuff so I didn't have to tap every gun and re-tap the enemy locations. great job
