O Captain
A downloadable game
Set Sail Beneath the Stars
You are the captain of a ship, embarking on an important voyage with only the fickle stars to guide you. Chart your course by reading those stars, and keep record of your triumphs and tribulations in your captain’s log. Will you become a legend of the seas, or will you drown attempting to defy your fate?
In O Captain, you roll a pool of dice, build constellations from the result, and answer the corresponding prompts. These prompts further your story and can grant you boons to help you find new shores. But it's not all smooth sailing; gather too many setbacks, and you may find yourself swept away!
To play O Captain, you will need this book, a hard surface, and lots of dice: at least 8 d6s, and at least one d4, d8, and d10 (more encouraged).
And when you've mastered the seven seas, meet and recruit memorable allies in the Crew Expansion!

This is an absolutely brilliant game that really highlights the sea fairing life wonderfully.
