How it feels

A gentle, colorful underwater exploration with light turn-based naval combat and a search for treasure and meaning.

What players say

Players love the handcrafted clay diorama visuals and atmospheric sound design, but are split on the combat: some find it brutally engaging, others say it gets monotonous and the main boss is too hard. The RPG mechanics are basic and the battle theme can hurt ears, but the charm and exploration keep most recommending it.
