Product Description
Experience the thrill of captaining your own boat while searching for undersea riches in Deadliest Catch Alaskan Storm for your Windows PC. Battle 40-foot waves, storms, ice and a nearly 100-percent crewmember injury rate on the icy Bering Sea. Select one of 5 real crab boats featured on the Discovery Channel series, or create and customize your own boat. Then choose your own crew from a roster of 20 real crab fishermen. Selecting the wrong boat or crew member can lead to disaster. Lead your fatigued, hungry and hardworking crew in the search for King Crab and Opilio Crab, while battling to secure your catch before other crews get there first. Realism is added with 4 real Bering Sea harbors and 34,000 miles of real Bering Sea coastline created from the United States Geological Survey. Weather and fishing conditions are based on authentic weather data and get worse each season. The ultimate goal is to return safely each season, upgrade your boat and crew, and attempt to break the real-life Captain Sig Hansen's actual lifetime catch of twenty million pounds.

this game is a true simulation November 30, 2008

the developers of the product did a very good job keeping the product extremely real. Therefore it does take a rather long time to play and after a while doing the same thing gets a little old. There's not a lot of variety in gameplay and the graphics except for during storms are definitely subpar for 2008 standards.

Good game. Takes forever to load and it takes forever to play but if you need a game that burns up some time this is it.

I never got a chance to play it. The game wouldn't play after I installed it. Said I needed to upgrade my graphic card. After doing that I was able to go into the game to play but it ran so choppy that it wasn't even worth it.

I love this game. It would not work on my old PC but works great on my new one. The graphics are excellent and it is challenging enough for kids over 40.

I downloaded a trial on discovery.com and the graphics were way beyond my expectations. The download played smoothly on my computer so I bought it. The only bad thing I have to say is it loads kind of slow. This game is easy depending on the difficulty you choose. I love this game I play this game every day.
