Sailing

Ever wondered what the America's Cup was all about? Me too. Multi-millionaires spending trillions of pounds building boats and then racing them across huge stretches of water in what's got to be the dullest spectator sport since synchronised swimming (now, synchronised drowning - there's a sport!) Woss the point, we all cry?

Well, if you have ever wondered, here's Sailing. Here you get to design your own yacht, sail it, and if you've got it all right, lift some trophy or other. Of course it's not quite as simple as that, as unless you know a lot about this sort of thing to start off with you're a bit in the dark. It's not all bad though, appealing more to football management sim fans than arcadesters, I'd suggest. Essentially, then, we're talking Very Limited Appeal. Indeed.
