Steam’s Latest Top Seller Is A Cool Surprise
Windward is not a survival game in early access. It’s not a shooter. It’s not a roguelike. Really, it’s not much like the typical games you always see tearing up the Steam charts at all—and thanks kraken for that!
Instead, Windward is a top-down sailing game with a procedurally generated world. You can do stuff like fight pirates, trade, and explore. The way the game handles all of those mechanics sounds really cool
Windward presents itself as a “chart your own adventure” high-seas simulator promising great ocean expanses, complex economic trading, diplomatic engagement, and high-octane sea battles for whoever wishes to find their inner Magellan or Admiral Horatio Nelson. You sail your ship (and the small fleet you gather at the beginning of the game) around procedurally generated seas trading goods, hunting pirates, laying siege to cities, and building diplomatic relationships with towns and opposing alliances. But every mode features the depth of a freshman-level philosophy course, and if you want to engage in any of the non-combat options the game offers, you must deal with rote, padding-fueled combat for extended stretches.
