Reviews: What People Think About Burly Men at Sea

Rating: 5/5
I have to laugh. I’ve had this game on my iPhone for months and never got around to playing it. Well, out of nowhere, I finally played through it this morning on my new iPhone Xs Max. And then the app updates this afternoon to be “properly outfitted for the latest iPhone models”. Talk about timing. Guess I’ll have to play through it once more!
Was a lot of fun. Beautifully done, love the artwork and especially the sounds/music. Is this a puzzler or brain teaser in any way? Not really. Just good, clean, whimsical fun. And it’s well worth it. I may even end up ordering a book for my wife’s kindergarten class.

Burly Men at Sea is a cut above most of the cobbled-together apps and games you will find in the App Store. It's full of delightful surprises, secret opportunities, careful details and gorgeous art work. If you're wanting to be immersed in ancient Nordic mythology with as a burly, bearded sailor, this is the adventure for you.
Fun for kids, parents, wanderers, explorers, this game offers something for all. You can even have a picture book of your adventure created if you know where to look! Aye aye sailor!

I’m honestly not sure why this is being referred to as a game. It’s a 20-30 minute interactive story. Nothing really happens. The characters don’t grow or change. They just take a short trip together and meet a few odd and adorable creatures. Even if you think of it as a children’s book, it really lacks a compelling story. I was fully prepared to freak out about how awesome this was given all the hype. Can’t do it. I was super underwhelmed.
