Action game in which we play the role of sailors traversing the dangerous waters of the picturesque archipelago. In addition to sailing at Sail Forth, we also acquire the resources needed to expand our fleet and face pirates and monsters.
Sail Forth is an action game in which we sail and face the dangers lurking at sea. The game was developed by David Evans, an independent American developer from Seattle, and released by The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild.
Mechanics
In Sail Forth the action is presented from TPP. The game begins with a small boat, on board of which we traverse various maps. Locations are generated procedurally, so each of them provides us with a slightly different visual experience (although all of them are equally picturesque).
When sailing, we should be on our guard as the sea is full of pirates and monsters. We face our opponents in dynamic battles, during which we try to accurately shoot cannons and rifles while avoiding enemy attacks. Even when there are no enemies on the horizon, it is worth to be on our guard, because the weather is also unpredictable, and high waves or gusts of wind can be a threat, especially to inexperienced sailors.
By exploring picturesque locations and sinking enemy ships, we acquire the resources necessary to build new and larger ships; in this way, over time, we acquire an impressive fleet, so that in the event of losing one of our vessels we are not condemned to begin the adventure from scratch. Our ships can be upgraded (for example by installing more and more powerful weapons) and visually modified.
Technical aspects
Sail Forth features colorful graphics in an eye-pleasing, cartoonish style that evokes certain associations with the iconic The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The game is accompanied by a soundtrack that enables us to relax during exploration and inspires us in combat.
