After giving this game a go after it sitting in my library for ages, I'd say it deserves a better rating. Its a fun, light-hearted, ship battling RPG game with decent art that got me hooked for hours on end. I'm not sure why, but many people seems to not want to give it a decent go. I see many reviews saying that the game doesn't save, has terrible controls or not knowing when to fire the cannons which are all valid complaints but has mostly been addressed. If you cant get the game to save, which it won't out of the box. You'll need to delete a file named "galaxy64.dll" located in: \King of Seas\KOS\Plugins\OnlineSubsystemGOG\Source\ThirdParty\GalaxySDK\Libraries They've added mouse support in the latest 1.20 (Monster Update), they added support for remappable keys and an options to enable line of sight for the ship's cannons in earlier updates as well! Here's some of my thoughts on the game and why only I gave it a 4 star: 1. No quick travel. I'm kind of on the fence on this, I would appreciate the feature but that takes away from the exploration part, with quick travel I would've missed alot of additional materials, gold and xp from floating crates, shipwrecks and crates near island shores. There's also abilities specifically to speed up the player's ships so its really not a big issue. 2. No freeroam after completion. This is frustrating, after completing the final story mission it ends with the player character sailing off and the credit rolls BUT when you try getting back in it just brings you back before the last mission. If you want to keep playing after the ending you CANNOT go close to the king's fortress as it will trigger the last mission even though you already completed the game. 3. No future updates. 1.20 will be from what I've read is the last update, the devs has delivered what they've promised and moved on the other projects even though I feel this game has massive potential. All in all, the game still worth giving it a shot, play it!
