Great news,Watch Lost Bullet Online iPad owners: Failbetter Games' wonderfully words-heavy roguelike Sunless Seais now something you can buy in the App Store.
The game sends players off to explore an underground ocean where pirate-operated steamships, deadly "Zee" monsters, and worse horrors await. Death comes swiftly and frequently, but them's the breaks when you settle in with a roguelike.
SEE ALSO: Slick action indie game 'Tokyo 42' channels 'Grand Theft Auto'Sunless Sea is an easy game to look at thanks to Failbetter's wonderful art, but the words matter more. The writing is both quirky and engrossing, effectively painting a more vivid picture of the Victorian-era underworld than any screenshot ever could.
Where most RPGs focus on juggling stats, Sunless Seaplaces greater import on your choices. Many of the elements that you would expect to see in a more traditional RPG are either invisible mechanisms here, or they're completely absent.
The game is meant to be challenging. While death is permanent and each new game randomly reshapes the world, certain things remain static from playthrough to playthrough. As you learn more about the "Unterzee" with each game, you better equip yourself to survive the more challenging scenarios when you play again.
Sunless Seatakes place in the same universe as another Failbetter release: Fallen London. The browser-based choose-your-own-adventure introduced the notion of a Victorian-era London that's disappeared underground.
If you'd like to get a sense of Failbetter's written voice, Fallen Londonis available as a free iOS download. It's a quality work on its own that also serves as a helpful introduction to the new game. Sunless Seais out now in the iOS App Store (iPad only) for $10.
