About

The Crew

CAPSTAN Games is an independent, internationally distributed game studio.

We make historically grounded games. Our work focuses on the skill, strategy, and human stories of the age of sail.

Ahoy is our first title. It comes from years of research and a love of maritime worlds. We are a small team building things we want to play.
