Cruise Ship Manager puts us in charge of a luxury cruise ship ready to set sail with hopeful passengers. Mostly, they’re hoping we have food, a clean pool, and someone who can actually pilot this boat.
We’re taking a look at the Cruise Ship Manager demo and seeing if we can finish our journey, or if the passengers will revolt when they find out the captain is clueless.
Cruise Ship Manager gameplay is right here.

Fulfill your dreams of watching over a beautiful vessel, a large crew, and all sorts of passengers in Cruise Ship Manager!
Take cruises to a next level in this unique management game. Choose how you want your cruise ship to be built, make sure everything runs smoothly, set the prices for the passengers, and become a legend of the high seas!
Choosing the layout of the ship is up to you! Decide on the layout, where to place a club for your passengers, and where 5-star restaurants should be. Does a casino strike your fancy or maybe an open pool? And don’t forget about rooms for your passengers! Make sure everything is well connected and that you keep enough money for food or fuel.
Pick your crew wisely. Their skills will lead to your success or failure. Once you leave the dock, you’re stuck with the people you chose so make sure you don’t regret hiring an untested rookie over an experienced veteran.
Once you settle on the amenities and prepare the necessary equipment, you can finally search for passengers to invite onto your ship. But there’s a catch – it’s not up to you who buys your tickets. So price your tickets accordingly. You might charge a premium if you do, your passengers will feel entitled to the best service there is and it won’t be easy to satisfy them. On the other hand, you could sell the tickets at a low price and improve your budget through other means. For instance, by charging extra for fancy cocktails.
As your renown grows, more people will want to experience the thrill of signing up for your cruise. Build your brand and reach a point where people will pay any amount of money, just to say they were on your cruise ship!
You have the power to choose the route your cruise ship shall take. Would you rather make some quick cash on a routine, 1-day cruise? Or maybe a long journey through the Mediterranean is what strikes your fancy? You might be paid more for trips to exotic places but beware of the storms. Lives could be at stake if a fire breaks out or engines malfunction. It will be your task to end such a crisis – before it’s too late.
Features:
A cruise ship of your own that you can customize to your liking
Resource management (fuel, food, etc.)
Incredible variety of unique passengers with different expectations and behaviors
Random events
Crew members that have their own needs
Route selection
Many unique rooms to add to your ship

Love that you show your first time playing. When it is a demo
You should rename this Channel to demo game gammer
I think Captain Stubing from the Love Boat would be proud of you! It is like he said: “I think when life gets heavy, people look for an escape. “The Love Boat” is an escape. We have happy endings. You don't see many of those around. I think it gave people a vicarious adventure.” Although I am a bit confused what he meant with "happy ending" 🤔
I brought you coffee… because I heard you had none on your rather large yacht… or smallish cruise ship.
I was glad to see that the engine room did not catch on fire… although I'm thinking that might end up being something in the full game.
Your ship was like a Carnival cruise… cheap, noisy, and rather dirty… although they do have a reputation for much, much more alcohol (all up-charged, of course) and therefore more fights among passengers. That's a form of entertainment, right? They aren't known as "The Party Ships" for nothing… and are very popular with the university crowd. You did get the dirty rooms part right for them. The pool wasn't probably necessary (although Carnival does have at least one on every ship)… food and alcohol is very important however. Lots and lots of places to buy alcohol. Keep the passengers drunk and they buy more in the shops and don't complain about the food being awful in the buffet (because they can't taste it). Charge lots for eating in the restaurants and for the alcohol and make your money there, while charging little for the cabins.
You might not find a cruise for $50 anymore (they did exist before 2011), but you can find one that's 4 days to the Caribbean and back out of Florida for $113 for an inside cabin.
I gotta try this one for myself. Thanks, Dave!
This and Castle Manager have my attention.
The difference is, the Captain of a Boat wont be angry if you call it a Boat. But the Captain of a ship will slap you. 😉
Is this how Gilligan's Island started? It does look good if they give you enough crew or money to hire them.
