From Steam reviews

Review notes

Tharsis is worth a closer look if you want nautical, replayable, management, and short sessions.

Best for players who want nautical, psychological horror, strong atmosphere, and replayable.

Check more carefully if you dislike technical roughness.

Setting

Water, boats, fishing, or sea travel are important to the feel.

Technical roughness or instability comes up often enough to check.

The structure gives reasons to return rather than finish once.

management

The game asks you to run, improve, or balance a system over time.

The mood, place, and presentation carry a lot of the experience.

If you have problems with the game not starting after the intro and crashing.
