Seaman is obviously not for the traditional gamer, who feel the need for clear structure, goals and rewards. For gamers who like different, quirky and innovative games that beat to the rhythm of their own drum, Seaman is a worthwhile, one-of-a-kind experience that is imaginative and wondrous. For gamers who do choose to experience Seaman, I do have a couple of warnings that should be heeded. First of all, Seaman is at times aesthetically unappealing. His freakish look grew on me over an extended time, but some gamers may be put off or outright disturbed by his appearance. Seaman will also require a bit of dedication on the part of the caretaker. It's not a terribly demanding task, but like raising any pet, close to daily attention is necessary, and long-term neglect and mistreatment can be unforgiving and result in deadly repercussions (thankfully, an appropriately cast narrator of the game, Leonard Nimoy, does offer scant, but useful tips and guidance at the beginning of each session).
This aspect of the game may also make it more attractive for parents who wish to teach their children about responsibility. The level of commitment required to care for Seaman can be a good practice for children who desire to own a real-life pet. Although Seaman's disturbing look, mature demeanor and often dark humor may be unsuitable for younger audiences.
