Ferryman
Ferryman
In Ferryman you must take on the role of Charon, the boatman of the Underworld, and help the souls of the dead escape the mortal plane.
Load up your boat with paying customers and ferry them to safety across the perilous river Styx, avoiding attacks from the Kraken and hordes of evil Harpies.
Throw the rest into the fiery jaws of Cerberus, you're a busy man after all and have no time for freeloaders!
Use your well earned coins to upgrade your boats and hire skeletal personal to increase your efficiency as more and more souls flood the gates of the Underworld- I heard there was a war in Troy or something...
Manage your expenses wisely, and you can even call upon the gods to aid you in your ever-intensifying mission.
Keep the queue from getting congested for as long as you can and rack up a high score!
PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PLAYING
