What players say
Players mostly like the realistic machinery and handling, but many find the campaign short and mission-based, with no open or endless mode after the story.
Many players enjoy operating the cranes, straddle carriers and other machines, which have weight, detailed controls and realistic sounds, and they praise the port atmosphere and visuals. Some find the story light and the missions short, typically ten to twenty minutes, so there are only a few hours of content before the campaign ends. Many players complain that there is no sandbox or free play where they can unload whole ships, and that the economy and management part is poorly explained. Some report that the repair minigames are tedious, and a few mention performance issues on Steam Deck and that the expansions are pitched as paid add-ons. Recent reviews are more positive on average and mention that the later missions and hard mode add challenge, but the complaints about missing endless content remain.
Praised
- Realistic machinery handling
Players enjoy the weight, detailed controls and distinct handling of each crane and vehicle.
Many players - Port atmosphere and visuals
The harbour looks good, with detailed machines, realistic dock sounds and weather effects.
Many players - Relaxing, satisfying progression
Players describe the game as calm and satisfying, with missions that grow gradually harder.
Some players
Criticised
- No sandbox or endless mode
Players want a free mode to unload ships and keep playing after the campaign ends.
Many players - Short, mission-based campaign
Missions are short and scripted, so the story ends after roughly ten to thirty hours.
Many players - Unclear economy and management
Players find the economy and management systems confusing, poorly explained and pointless.
Some players - Tedious repair minigames
The equipment repair minigames are described as tedious or frustrating.
Some players
- Who it suits
- Players who enjoy operating heavy machinery and mission-based simulation and are happy with a short, story-driven experience.
- Who should skip it
- Players who want to unload whole ships, run an open port or play endlessly, and those who dislike short scripted missions.
Short vs. long playtime: Players with over 20 hours tend to ask more for an endless mode and longer missions, while newer players mostly praise the controls and atmosphere.
