About the Game Set sail and build your career at sea in Seafarer: The Ship Sim. Take the helm of various vessels, explore a vast open world inspired by Northern Europe, and take on a variety of maritime jobs - from cargo transport and rescue missions to firefighting, patrols, and unexpected events at sea.

Start your career as an aspiring captain and earn your reputation across different harbors and factions. Complete missions, unlock new opportunities, expand your fleet, and shape your own path on the water.
