How it feels

A tense, fast-paced underwater action-adventure where you use water physics and environmental hazards to fight terrorists aboard a floating city.

What players say

Players praise the water physics as a standout feature, but many say the game is short, buggy, and has awful controls. It is a linear action-adventure that feels dated and requires a 60 Hz screen to function properly.
