Burly Men at Sea  is a folktale about a trio of large, bearded fishermen who step away from the ordinary to seek adventure\.  With gameplay halfway between a visual novel and a point\-and\-click adventure, the branching story carries its ungainly heroes into waters where lurk creatures from Scandinavian folklore and other misadventures\. You play as storyteller and wayfinder, shaping a custom tale that begins again where it ends\. FEATURES     Branching Story : Play through multiple choice\-driven adventures, each designed to be completed in a single sitting\.    Innovative Controls:  Shape the narrative through a unique, draggable viewport and your interactions within it\.    Playful Aesthetic:  Colorful art style with handcrafted animation, set to a whimsical original soundtrack inspired by folk music of the far north\.   ABOUT THE DEVELOPER   Burly Men at Sea  is the second game from married duo Brain&Brain, developed during their own adventures as nomads and erstwhile farmhands\.
