The Sunless Sea Launch Giveaway!

image

Take the helm of your steamship and set sail for the unknown! SUNLESS SEA is a game of discovery, loneliness and frequent death, set in the award-winning Victorian Gothic universe of Fallen London.

To celebrate the release of SUNLESS SEA on 6 February 2015, we have 3 copies to give away!

If the giant crabs, sentient icebergs and swarms of bats don’t get you, madness and cannibalism certainly will. But that old black ocean beckons, and there’s loot for the brave souls who dare to sail her.

Betray your crew, sell your soul to a Devil, marry your sweetheart. Survive long enough and you’ll achieve your life’s ambition.

You will die, but your legacy will live on…

Why do you want to play this game?

  • A deep, compelling world packed with 200,000+ words of stories and secrets. Find your father’s bones. Determine London’s destiny. Defy the gods of the deep sea.
  • Beautiful, hand drawn art - castles of sparkling ice, prisons perched on lily pads, fog-shrouded lighthouses and the DAWN MACHINE.
  • Light and dark, terror and madness: stray too far from the gas-lamps of civilisation and your crew will grow fearful and eventually lose their sanity.
  • Hire unique officers like the Haunted Doctor and the Irrepressible Cannoneer. Each has a story to tell, if you can draw it out of them.
  • Choose a ship’s mascot: the Comatose Ferret, the Wretched Mog, the Elegiac Cockatoo, and more!
  • Trade or smuggle silk and souls, mushroom wine and hallucinogenic honey.

A Principle flows from the Mountain in the far South where none are mortal. It touches the waters of Adam’s Way. It dissolves in the zee, at last, but its knots and eddies find their way North. To London, where death is difficult. To the Island of Sniggering Stones.

And to the ice-horrors we call lifebergs.
