About Krusenstern: A Stellar Sail

Thundering cannons, sails flapping in the wind, and the ship’s deck creaking – one of the most dangerous sea voyages of the 19th century lies ahead. Walk in Captain Ivan Kruzenshtern’s shoes, recruit a ship crew, secure the Emperor’s backing and sail out on Russia’s first, history-making circumnavigation. Kronstadt, Nuku Hiva’s indigenous cannibal tribes, snowy Alaska, unapproachable Japan, and China with its perils, and all this against the backdrop of violent storms, major sea battles, geographic discoveries, overcoming the challenges of maritime navigation, and a delicate interplay between onboard diplomacy and international relations.

Kruzenshtern. A Stellar Sail is a monumental immersive project that tells the story of Russia’s first circumnavigation, undertaken by captains Kruzenshtern and Lisyansky on board Nadezhda and Neva. We re-enacted the chronicle of this historic voyage by relying on the protagonists’ diaries and hundreds of historical documents. The two ships spent over three years at sea, sailed through six seas and three oceans to accomplish a legendary feat. It is now your turn to become part of Russian naval history.

"Krusenstern: A Stellar Sail" is a glitchy, weird Russian tech demo about Russia's first circumnavigation of the globe, and wow, it's as functional as history tells us the Russian navy is. Aka, barely works at all. This is a pointless, un-fun tech demo not worth anyone's time. The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 12 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. …

This game might be really good, but if you have language options they should also speak the language. I am still giving it a thumbs up though. I am sure there are a lot of people that speak Russian and will enjoy this game.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
