Sloop is a heavily narrative driven game with a large focus on command and control of a Sloop of War in the age of sail. The player takes on the role of a Captain of a large Sloop in the service of the Imperial Wosynathi Navy, which of the island chain based trading nation, Wosyn. The player will be sent to escort trading ships amongst the islands of Wosyn and eventually internationally as well as featuring quest chains about combating piracy on the high seas in the Age of Sail on Novis Vanidium. Along with this the players distinguished service may also see them called in to escort or carry out missions of diplomatic importance, as the story will be driven by the Politics and international relations of the world of Novis Vanidium, by and large. The Player will of course captain a sloop of war as their main vessel, but this will not be the only vessel under their command. The player will also have the opportunity to hire and recruit other ships, as well as work in tandem with other ships within the IWN fleet, and will feature port cities and interaction on a personal level with other captains and crews heavily.
While possible to do on console, this game may lend itself more naturally to PC gaming due to the necessities of controlling a full warship by themselves. Target audiences would be players who have an interest in alternate histories and historical universes, and naval warfare.
