With bodies we glut the seas - and she returns? But mysteries. -Cantish sailor's rhyme

The Dashing Young Captain is a two-page print-and-play game for one about a beautiful young captain and the sea voyage they don't return from. It involves some drawing, some writing, and, possibly, some tearing and burning.

Just the latest in a series of drawing games about how bodies are broken down and destroyed. It's inspired by the many hours I've spent with Sunless Seas / Skies lately.

Sunless Sea is a brilliant but totally chilling game. I need to try Sunless Skies and get back into Fallen London too.
