How it feels

A slow, tense crawl through crushing darkness and isolation, where your own mind becomes the enemy as the pressure bears down.

What players say

Players praise the oppressive underwater atmosphere but are frustrated by the intentionally slow, tank-like movement and confusing navigation. The need to find 40 collectibles clashes with limited oxygen and a cramped first-person view that restricts vision.
