Get ready to take the wheel! In At the Helm, you are the captain of a sailboat braving the fury of the open ocean. The sea is unforgiving: from devastating storms to colossal sea serpents, every decision can mean the difference between the glory of discovery or a tragic shipwreck. The game's aesthetic is incredibly charming, inspired by old captains' ship logs, with sketches that evoke a classic nautical adventure vibe.

Don't let the size fool you; the experience is intense. The game employs deckbuilding mechanics, where you must assemble and upgrade your deck to survive. The goal is straightforward yet challenging: complete three selected challenges before your time runs out or your health fails.

The gameplay loop is snappy: each turn, you choose one or two cards from your hand. You can either resolve the card's ability to progress toward your goals or simply discard it if it's not useful. Then, you resolve the effects of any incomplete challenges—and that's where the danger lies. When drawing new cards, keep an eye on the 'broken hearts,' as they represent damage to your health. If your health reaches the skull and crossbones symbol, or if both the market and the deck run out while you still need to draw, it's game over. If you manage to conquer the three challenges, you prove yourself a master of the seas! It's the perfect game for those seeking a quick mental challenge with an immersive theme, all in a format that literally fits in your pocket.
