In The Sinkologist, you play as Dr. H. Tuwoh, the world's most prestigious Sinkologist.

　　A sinkologist's research concerns the failure of autonomous, robot-controlled and maintained maritime vessels. Conduct research by causing mechanical failure (fancy language for sinking the ships), leading to research progress!

　　Challenge yourself to outwit the robots aboard the different vessels, and help the field of Sinkology!

　　Your tools for the job are bombs and matches. Bombs can blow holes in the sides of compartments in the vessels. Matches can be used to cause fires in fuel and engine rooms. These fires distract and delay the robots. Flooding the electrical room (with the yellow box in it) makes doors open and close very slowly.

　　use WASD to move around the vessel

　　use the arrow keys to open and close doors in the current room

　　Press E to pick up an item

　　Press F to drop an item

　　Thanks for playing!
