Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A native iPhone and iPad game about routing ferries, fishing boats, yachts, and container ships through a compact San Francisco Bay.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

Ferry Busy models a compact San Francisco Bay with adapted shorelines and traffic rules rather than presenting itself as a navigation aid. Its described campaign contains 47 watches across six areas, with four boat types, occupied berths, wind, tides, and work zones shaping the decisions. Players can draw courses or use tap waypoints, then progress through Standard, Harbor Master, and Bay Legend tiers. Multiplayer and device testing remain in progress, and public downloads are not yet offered.
