I always wanted a game like this, so that part is really good. Thank you to the developer for making this game as it's rather rare to see this type of game.
Now, over all this game is good and fun. You can play while watching videos for example if you just have a few ships. However it's a time sink when you starting to get 6-8 ships and gets much worse after that. The pause mode is there for your biggest help to sort things out.
You have 3 types of ships, or technically 4 as oil and gas tankers are for some reason in the same category. Aside from oil and gas, you can transport containers and bulk (raw ore for example). It would be fun to have some other type ships added, like multi-purpose vessels, Reefer ships, Ro-ro vessels, heavy-lift ships, etc. It will broaden the options a lot, specially if you have the option to use way more ships at the same time.
Fortunately you can get "on" your ship and see it docked or sailing, however unfortunately you can't really see it's journey as it will technically be on pause and you don't actually travel with the ship. Rather disappointing.
There are a lot of important ports not added yet, if I understood it correctly, the developer mentioned this will be addressed at some point. I do hope this will be the case.
BUGS:
These are the ones I noticed, I do hope a patch will come to fix this.
- you click trough the map and the UI for some reason. Clearly not meant to happen as it causes rather annoying issues
- using your scroll wheel will zoom the map when you try to scroll trough your ships. Rather annoying
- Even on easy the AI oddly enough will pass you so you can't really win. Regardless what you try, you can't keep up or catch up. This is pretty much a show stopper as it makes it impossible to win.
