Worse Things Happen At Sea

Neatly drawn nautical nonsense in which you must try and stem a thousand leaks on board on ailing ocean liner in order to guide it into port.

The ship consists of about a dozen compartments, all of which begin to fountain like mad as you trundle frantically about on your rounds. Once sealed, these segments can be pumped dry in order to keep the tub afloat. Unfortunately, sealing plates are in rather short supply and the little sea-droid who does all the work has a tendency to rust up and croak when exposed to salt water.

Sailors will have a constant battle against the rising tide on their hands. Personally I believe it Canute be done [You're fired - Ed]. Visually, it's the most impressive thing yet put out by Silversoft, and the challenge quota is considerably high.
