Stranded Sails - Explorers of the Cursed Islands Review in 3 Minutes

Stranded Sails – Explorers of the Cursed Islands Has Fun Visuals, but Dull Gameplay – Review in 3 Minutes

Recommended Videos

Stranded Sails – Explorers of the Cursed Islands is a farming adventure game from Lemonbomb Entertainment. You play as Wright or Claire, depending on what gender you choose, and set out on your father’s ship with his crew looking for a better life on a northern continent. A storm sends your vessel off course, and it crashes into a deserted island. The accident leaves your father bedridden, the crew scattered, and you as their only hope for survival.

Beautiful isometric landscapes and shimmering translucent water don’t save the game from feeling fundamentally basic though. Stranded Sails never approaches any depth with its gameplay and pads out the gameplay there is with transparent wastes of time.
