How it feels

Exploring a cramped, dark submarine while fighting possessed crew members and uncovering a mystery feels tense and claustrophobic.

What players say

Players praise this short, claustrophobic survival horror game set in a submarine, calling it a solid homage to classic Resident Evil with fixed camera angles and tank controls. Many note the final boss fight can be unfair due to limited ammo and healing, and camera placements sometimes cause frustration in tight spaces.
