User Reviews

While praised as a fun, skill-building sailing sim with real-world appeal, Inshore struggles with reliability and balance. Reviewers laud its potential and position among the top sailing games, but repeatedly report bugs, crashes, unfair penalties due to flawed rules, and monetization concerns. Addressing rules accuracy, stability, and fairness is essential to satisfy the community.

Pros

Fun and engaging sailing game that many users enjoy.
Helps improve real-life sailing skills and strategy; used for practice.
Regarded as one of the best sailing games available with strong positive sentiment.
Potential as a teaching tool for sailing; appreciated by real sailors.

Cons

Widespread bugs, glitches, and overall instability; frequent crashes and lag.
Racing rules implementation is flawed, leading to unfair penalties and fouling.
Pay-to-win monetization and perceived imbalance.
Unfair penalties and cheating behavior by players; penalty system undermines fairness.
Stability issues including disconnects and loss of progress/tokens.

Recent reviews

What REALLY needs development is the HUD and UI. For the HUD, the wind sock is TINY, and it can be hard to tell if the VMG is good with it sometimes. A slider in the settings to make it bigger would be great and make it more accessible to everyone. For the UI, I would LOVE if I could rearrange the button layout, make them small, make them big, etc, and place them where I want on the screen to interact with. The only UI option is to mirror the controls (turning & tack/luff). The game is great. I enjoy the physics, boats, and tactics. I think there’s a lot of potential in just allowing players to have a more customizable game experience. (Also a first person view mode would be sick) Love the game.
