What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Ships 2017 offers a unique maritime simulation focused on realistic cargo operations and precision navigation, which appeals to players seeking something different from typical action-heavy naval games. However, players find the core gameplay loop—particularly repetitive container loading and unloading mechanics—tedious and boring, with the game feeling shallow and lacking depth beyond these basic tasks. Most agree the $15 price point is too high for what amounts to a short, limited experience, though some enjoyed it as a budget purchase.

Ships 2017, developed by FragOut and published by Games Box and SIG Publishing, is a maritime simulation that aims to capture the slower, more methodical side of operating industrial vessels rather than the action-heavy depictions often seen in naval games. It places players in control of specialized ships tasked with cargo transport, rescue operations, and technical maritime work, all set against the backdrop of the Baltic Sea. The concept itself is appealing in its uniqueness, offering a glimpse into a niche rarely explored in games, but its execution reveals a number of limitations that shape the overall experience. The gameplay is built around completing structured missions that emphasize precision and patience. Players are required to navigate large vessels through tight waterways, dock carefully, and operate onboard equipment such as cranes to load and unload cargo. There is a clear attempt to simulate real-world maritime procedures, and when everything comes together, there can be a sense of accomplishment in successfully completing a complex maneuver. The deliberate pace reinforces the idea of authenticity, encouraging players to approach each task with care rather than ru…
peak game I like it It saved my marriage
Its good game. Few Things to fix. I think its too boring to load the containers. But I love this game, and I’m waiting for ships 2022 and ships 2024🙂. Oh ye and I would suggest to add a umea port in s2017. I hope it will be available soon ⚓️. 😉
Ships 2017, perhaps I didn't cook this one for long enough, but I really couldn't go on, one of the first things you do is load 5 containers onto your ship, I can honestly say, this was not enjoyable in the slightest, then you dock your ship in the next mission, and then the game asks you to unload the containers, I don't know what happens after that, the prospect of using that Crain again played the deciding factor on my decision to stop playing. From what I can gather from reading some of the reviews on here, the game doesn't really open up any more than that, Euro Truck but with ships would be an awesome concept, but I don't think this is it sadly.
