As part of the rebranding effort, we have changed the name of the game to "Forgotten Seas"
We believe that this change is in the best interest of the game. The underlying game is completely unchanged but has received some new facelifts.

It is still the nautical adventure you were promised.
This name change will help us with various marketing efforts and localization to different languages.

Thanks for all your support!
