Sailor's Delight

During the first trip the "Neptunix", the cargo ship of which the player is the captain, is in good condition except for a few holes in the hull.

Sailor's Delight is a simulation game in which the player controls the robot C-Bot 9000 to prevent an old cargo ship "Neptunix" getting flooded. At the top of the screen there are several indicators that should be closely monitored. The total score and the salary per trip are shown at the top left. The latter can be used to pay for repairs when the player finish the trip and the remainder of the salary is added to the total score.

Next to it there is a graph that shows the ship with its seven compartments, three in the hold and four on deck. Once a flooded compartment has been located, the cracks in the floor must be covered with a number of plates found in different parts of the ship. After the player has repaired a leak, it is necessary to pump out all the water that has entered the hold from the ship. These pumps are not in good condition and the robot will also have to repair them.

To the right there is "Robot Power". All the time it will slowly run out. If it runs out, the player will lose a life. To charge the "Robot Power", the robot needs to be taken to the power plant. Below the "Robot Power" is the course meter, where one can see if the ship is changing course and needs to be corrected, a thermometer where the player can see if the temperature of the engines increases or decreases significantly, the Time and an object window. To select objects, the player must stand next to them and press "Select". Finally, there is the water level. That indicates how high the water is.
