A lonely, suspenseful descent into the deep, with retro visuals and a slow-burning tension that comes from the unknown below.

What players say
Players finish The Abyss Below in under an hour and call it a clone of Iron Lung. The story builds intrigue but ends abruptly, leaving many unsatisfied. A couple reviewers complain that the minimap can flip and disorient. Opinions are mixed on its value, but most agree the game is too brief for its plot.
