Saw their two 1 minute videos on the Steam page. Well, that looked VERY arcadish, I must admit...?!

Yeah, this is not a hardcore simulation. It's sort of a strategy and management game. But it's a pleasant diversion so far, as long as you're not looking for a, "Hardcore Mode" button.


I'll post anything else that I encounter, if anything of significance shows up. But right now, I'd say that if you like light strategy with a little ship management, and animated 3D ships thrown in, you might like this.


For the price, it is fun. But it's not "Warplan Pacific" or "Silent Hunter: Carrier Ops"

Couldn't be any worse than that disastrous game, Carrier Deck.

Haven't tried, "Carrier Deck". It has, "Very Positive" reviews on Steam, but that doesn't mean much. SH4 is one of my favorites, and they don't think much of it on Steam.


"Aircraft Carrier Survival" isn't bad once you get into it. But it's not a simulation, by any means. I'd call it a light strategy game. But it's kind of fun when you feel like relaxing and doing something easier than the normal fare around here.


The developers have already released two Hot Fixes and seem to be fairly responsive, so who knows? It might end up being a worthwhile, lighthearted lark.

I did a video review of it. Here it is:



It's like the old video arcade game, "Frogger", but on a Carrier Deck.
