Well, I've tried it. And I'm certainly going to try more. It's really early access, of course, and many elements are yet to be implemented (thus the one star I'm withholding for now), but I have to note that despite the game mechanics being very similar to Sunless Sea, the game feels very different. While the Sea is very much like a lovecraftian horror story, the Skies strongly resembles to me - pardon the probably ill-placed association - the Galactic Railways animated series. Part because of steam engines in space (I caught myself thinking that it would be really nice to be able to actually pull a train of cars later in the game, even despite the obvious steering difficulties) and part because the content that is already in the game gets the message of this being the frontier, and epicness, and the sky being no limit across really well. All in all, can't wait for the game to be completed!
