Discover the mysteries of the Undertzee in Sunless Sea, a role-playing video game set in the Fallen London universe. Explore, survive, and uncover secrets in this top-down adventure.

What is Sunless Sea?

Sunless Sea is a top-down role-playing video game developed and published by Failbetter Games. It is set in the same universe as the browser-based game Fallen London. Players take on the role of a steamship captain exploring the Unterzee, a vast underground sea located deep below the surface of Earth.

The game has a heavy focus on survival, storytelling and discovering the secrets hidden in the mysterious caverns and islands of the Unterzee. Resources are scarce, so players must manage fuel and supplies carefully while trading at port cities to stay afloat. The seas are also filled with hostile ships and giant beasts that will attack without hesitation.

As the captain, you must recruit a loyal crew to help run your ship, then set out to find your fortune and uncover the secrets that lie hidden in the darkness. The world is packed with unique characters and stories to discover, but one wrong decision could end your journey prematurely. Sunless Sea offers a singular experience filled with difficult choices and memorable adventures.
