I whole-heartedly* recommend this game (*with one caveat). Everything here is so well put together. It shows the quality of the game that my primary complaint is simply that there isn't enough of it (my only other complaint is that you can run out of convenient ways to get research parts after a while, which makes finishing your tech tree a grind). I managed to finish the game and get 100% of the achievements in less than 18 hours, and I could have finished the main story in closer to 10. That makes the asking price of $32.50 CAD a little steep, and if you price your playtime to dollar ratio strictly I would recommend waiting for a sale.

With the bad out of the way, all that is left is an amazing entry into the lovecraftian/eldrich/cosmic horror genre. Beautifully presented characters and fish, mysterious zones to explore, and a story with an ending that surprised me with how much it affected me.

If you're even slightly interested in any part of this game, I think you owe it to yourself to buy and play this game.
I also sincerely hope the devs consider doing another game like this, with even more to explore, catch, and discover.
