About Captain Goose
By sinking his ship, Captain Goose has brought a terrible curse, and now the Abyss itself is trying to get the souls of all those who survived the shipwreck. The surviving sailors, led by the captain, are forced to steal a stranger's ship and go to the other side of the world to ward off the minions of the Abyss. All living creatures, from small fish to huge sea monsters, will try to send the captain and his crew to a watery grave....
Players need to take control of the guns of the warship and prevent the enemies from making holes on its board. In order to keep the ship afloat, it is necessary to repair it, improve its defense and combat capabilities. Enemies can also have a negative effect on the ship or crew members: the gunpowder gets wet, and the cannons shoot badly, the sailors catch seasickness or the gunner drinks rum for courage and will not aim well....The gold gained must be spent wisely to prepare for any trouble that awaits on the high seas. Once you get to the nearest port, you can buy new types of shells, each of which has unique features. At your disposal are knippels, cannonballs-scissors, poisonous, incendiary, fragmentation bombs and more...
Captain Goose has a nasty character and, as a stern sailor, is quite a taciturn. But during his journey he will have to communicate with different heroes, not all of whom wish to succeed in his mission. However, the crew believes him and hopes that he will save their souls from the curse of the Abyss. The game has a unique visual style and musical accompaniment inspired by the atmosphere of sea battles and the golden age of piracy! And the touching plot and the confrontation between Captain Goose and the Abyss will not leave anyone indifferent!

✦ AI summary
Players appreciate this indie game's charming art style, decent writing, and accessible gameplay that feels well-balanced in difficulty, with many finding it a worthwhile budget purchase for a few hours of entertainment. However, common complaints center on limited replayability and shallow gameplay depth, repetitive and tiring music, unclear status effect indicators, and gameplay that becomes repetitive and frustrating as difficulty primarily increases through more projectiles rather than meaningful complexity.
Looks like all the reviews are in Russian, right now, so here goes: I think it's worth the $5. I got it on sale but, honestly, it's pretty worth it. The art style is nice, the writing is decent, the gameplay is pretty fun and not too punishing/easy. The downsides are that it doesn't feel like it has a ton of replayability (there's not that much depth to the gameplay) and the music is pretty tiring by the end of it--being an obvious Pirates of the Caribbean knockoff. It's also mildly annoying I can't tell if I have status effects on me for a lot of them and have to think to check the hold to see the status effects on me. (e.g. one you can easily notice is when the gunner gets drunk and the aim lines fade out) I finished the game and I might finish it once more to get the achievements which'll likely round me out around probably 7 or 8 hours of play time so, overall, I think it's worth the $5.4 found this helpful
A friend of mine bought this game to me as a joke. After getting every achievement I did enjoy my experience it reminded me much of old new grounds or cool math games from when I was a kid. Cute little bite sized game buy it if you just wanna kill a few hours of your day3 found this helpful
For an indie game - it is a good one. However, there are several things that prevent me from recommending it.1 found this helpful
The novelty wears of a bit too quick and then it's mostly repetitive and frustrating. Continue the same thing with more stuff flying at you. Lovely.1 found this helpful
