How it feels

You and your crew frantically search underwater wrecks for corpses while managing limited oxygen and avoiding lurking threats, creating a blend of cooperative tension, dark humor, and time pressure.

What players say

Players describe it as another 'friend slop' game in the vein of Lethal Company or R.E.P.O., but set underwater. The submarine navigation between missions quickly becomes a chore, and some complain that enemies camp the main entrance. Still, the adjustable difficulty, crossplay support, and workshop mods help it stand out, and groups report plenty of laughs for a weekend or two.
