Horror Game Sunless Sea Heading To iOS
Last year's Sunless Sea introduced PC players to a nautical-based take on Lovecraftian horror, with players taking their ship across an unexplored – and mind-bending – ocean. Today, developer Failbetter Games announced that, as part of the studio's seventh birthday, it is bringing the game to iOS audiences this spring.
The port will include all of the original game and its updates, aside from the Zubmariner expansion. It's being handled by BlitWorks, a studio that has worked to bring games such as Bastion and Broken Age over to the mobile platform.
Our Take
Dan Tack reviewed the original release for us and liked it a fair bit. His major criticisms centered around the UI, which is bound to be reconfigured to accommodate the touchscreen inputs. Who knows – perhaps this could end up being even better than the original version of the game.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
