Is AHTS Ship Simulator worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players interested in operating a large working vessel rather than a conventional boat
- Simulation fans who want weather, positioning, and collision hazards in one short objective
- Players who enjoy unusual maritime scenarios involving fires and a UFO
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a broad campaign, varied missions, or a large number of vessels may find the single rig-approach objective limited.
- Players looking for relaxed sailing may dislike the combination of storms, fires, traffic, UFO attacks, and sinking risk.
- Players who do not want a paid Steam simulation priced at 4.99 may not fit this listing.
Our take on AHTS Ship Simulator
The defining scenario combines precise AHTS vessel handling with an arcade-style emergency: reach an oil rig, hold position for 10 seconds, fight fires and a UFO with water cannons, and avoid sinking.
What is AHTS Ship Simulator?
Pilot a 3,000-ton anchor handling and tug supply vessel across open water to a nearby oil rig.
Use the main engines, wheel, bow thruster, and stern thruster for navigation and fine positioning. The objective is to enter the marked area, remain there for 10 seconds, and allow the crew to bring in the anchor. Traffic, changing weather, fires, and a UFO equipped with a tractor beam create additional hazards. Two water cannons can be used against flames and the UFO. Weather ranges from calm conditions to heavy storms, selectable through hotkeys. Collisions can sink the vessel, while stormy conditions make handling more difficult.
How AHTS Ship Simulator plays
- 01Adjustable weather
- Five weather settings range from calm conditions to heavy storms and can be changed with number keys.
- 02Positioning objective
- The vessel must stay inside the marked zone at the rig for 10 seconds.
- 03Water cannon controls
- Two external cannons can target fires and the attacking UFO.
- 04Manual ship handling
- Engine throttles, the wheel, and separate bow and stern thrusters control movement and turning.
