I got nothing. Also, it would be great. If like the shipping game you have you could see the cruise ships move around the routes ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2022-02-03, version 1.5.4* It would be nice to actually play the game. I’m angry and annoyed at the fact I purchased this game, and can’t even play. It played the tutorial, and then stopped. It froze. I’ve tried a few times, and still the game continues to freeze, after the tutorial. I’ve tried downloading over and over again, and to no avail. ### 3/5 — Good game *2021-11-04, version 1.5.4* Just wish you could see the ships location on the map. Also would love to be able to choose the colors for the ship ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2021-04-29, version 1.5.4* Boring and the user interface is buggy ### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER *2021-04-12, version 1.5.4* Although it could use an update still it’s a really good game ### 1/5 — NEEDS SERIOUS UPDATE. *2021-02-05, version 1.5.4* Works ok, apart from get stuck on every third menu and no way to exit on Mac. ### 5/5 — Cruise Ship Dream *2020-05-25, version 1.5.4* This Game Is Stupidly Brilliant, I Would Ask You If You Might Want To Play It, I’m Not Kidding “TMI”🤣But Seriously, I Rated This Game 5 Stars Because It Was So Good, Happy Time Playing It!!! 🤚🏻. ### 5/5 — Very Fun *2020-03-29, version 1.5.4* Definitely get the HD version (this one) instead of the normal one. Even though it costs more money than the normal version, it’s definitely worth it. It’s very very fun. But I would like to see a sequel ### 5/5 — Trade games.lab inc *2019-09-16, version 1.5.4* There grrrrrreat ### 5/5 — Awesome *2019-09-08, version 1.5.4* A really big selection of ships and ports!
