Control Britains typical narrowboats in 3D

This application brings the simulation of narrow boats on your android phone or tablet.

A tutorial will teach you some minimal aspects of how to control these boats on the canal.

When you've managed the basics you'll move to the "Drifting Badger Marina" where several tasks await you.

To advance you'll have to collect Canal Karma by displaying your navigating skills.

Having completed the tasks with a high enough Canal Karma will unlock the the Cruise Free mode and unlock up to two additional narrowboats.

This app is free and contains no ads. (May change on future releases)
