It does what every great game should -- keeps you guessing as to what might happen next.

Even now after two weeks with the fella I feel great joy and look forward to each morning to see what will happen next.

Seaman is a good game with great deep story and weird gameplay. The gameplay is slow, which does not mean it is boring. This type of gameplay, however, may not be for all people, but if you have patience and want to play a game with deep and great story, this is your game.

Seaman required you to check in daily, maybe even twice daily. Kinda like taking care of a cat. I wise-ass ungrateful cat that speaks perfect english but only understands you sometimes... Surprisingly great experience and cool story...

You simply need to keep giving Seaman a few minutes of your time each day, and you'll be rewarded with a freak show the likes of which you've never seen.

If anything, this will attract non-gamers, and that is a very good thing.

One cool thing Sega was able to do was cast Leonard Nimoy (the infamous Dr. Spock) as your narrator and guide to raising your Seaman.

Let's get this out in the open -- "Seaman" can, and will, bore the hell out of you.

After hours of useless conversation, wasted time, and unrewarding returns, chances are that Seaman will start to remind you of your ex-girlfriends.

This is the weirdest game ever. The game is good but the problems are that the game lacks a lot and is boring at a lot of parts as well as being SO weird!

Played through flycast emulation. Probably didn't get it but it seemed to be too much of doing the same thing. It's not creepy it just ended up being boring for me. Quite sad, I was really hyped for this one
