“Why Am I Dead At Sea is certainly worth playing for the incredible atmosphere and compelling characters.”
Gamerant

“I highly recommend this game to any fan of the genre, as well as those who enjoy being immersed in suspenseful, superbly-written narratives.”
True PC Gaming

“If you like mysteries, are in the mood for something a little different, and don’t mind a game that’s mostly reading dialogue, there's a lot to enjoy in this indie title.”

About This Game

You are on a boat at sea.

Also, you are dead.

To figure out why, you will need to inhabit the other residents of the ship and use them to investigate what led to your untimely demise. As a ghost, you can take control of characters in the game, and talk to others - based on who you are controlling and who you are talking to, there is a unique conversation. With each combination of characters leading to a different interaction based on their relationship or chemistry, your challenge is to find the interactions that will reveal pertinent information. Understand what makes your shipmates tick, and uncover the secrets that they hold.

Investigate an intricate mystery where few are who they seem and everyone has a secret.
Meet nine unique and developed characters, with their own personal fears and ambitions.
Use your ghost powers to possess bodies and read minds.
Recover your former identity to upgrade your ghastly powers.
Unlock multiple endings and decide the fate of the story.

The game also features an amazing soundtrack by Bill Kiley.
