My submarine sinks Towards The Seabed At insane speed. Everything raps, Water penetrates. I am sending a Call For Help, but it is already clear what is happening. It shatters. When I come to myself I see a lot of Algae, Sand and, more importantly, Fish. A giant Whale appears on the Horizon between small Goldfish and Dolphins. Through the Radio with my Colleague, I learn that my submarine has broken into Nine Parts. On top of that, my Air is running out. But not far from me I see an old, abandoned Accommodation. And here the Fun really starts. I find a Workbench, a Chest with something to eat and some Tools that I don't really understand. And a Drill! Aha! With this I can certainly search for Minerals! So I leave the Accommodation. On my Card, some Points flash. These must be Coordinates for Parts of the Boat. Some even close to me! I go collect them, a total of three Pieces. If that's that simple, it's going to be a very short underwater adventure. In my Inventory Is also a Kind of automatic Drill. I put him on a Vein of Iron Ore and he starts mining it. But there are two Problems: 1. I have Hunger 2. It's going to be dark. The second one scares me more. For the first Time, it comes to mind that down here are not just Dolphins and Whales. I want to go back to my Accommodation. But it is already happening. Something hit me. I'm bleeding. Now it comes to An End every Second. I am mauled by Sharks and other malevolent Animals. When I come to my place I am back in my Accommodation. My Equipment and collected Ores are gone. I go back to the Place of my Death and collect it again. Now back to the Dwelling and some "crafting." I make better Equipment, a Knife and a Spear that I can't use after trying something. (Later, I realize I'm missing a Harpoon) And I want to change something else. My Dwelling is quite small. After many, I manage to grow my House. Not just underwater at the Will. And I get To do pleasure again, to collect the other submarines parts. So I decide to venture into the Depths of the Sea. I Quickly reached my Limits. Because when I reach a Depth of 250 Meters, my Visor jumps. The Pressure is too high. I try to mine novel Minerals and collect some Parts of my underwater companion. I am Disturbed by luminous Jellyfish and eerie Lamp Fish. That scares me, because if there is something lurking here, what is more profound waiting for me? But I manage to adapt slowly to the Circumstances down here. Often there is still death, but with new Equipment, a Drone and a Harpoon, I become Part of this Event. Against Hunger, I expand my House and plant Potatoes. (The Idea of succumbing to small Fish turned out to be a bad Idea due to their massive Blood Loss and the Sharks approaching them) I build a Kind Of Turbine that allows me to travel faster, discovers sunken Ships and abandoned Buildings. And further down the line? There are Monsters waiting, which can make you really Afraid. In complete Darkness and several Hundred Meters Deep, huge Octopuses try to obstruct me to advance. But that, too, is what I will be able to do. I will find all The parts of my Boat and return to the Surface! All in all, an outstanding Survival game that is reminiscent of Minecraft in many Ways but definitely goes its separate Ways. You just get thrown in like that and you have to fight for yourself. No graphic bomb is to be expected here, but that is not necessary at all. The Urge to research Does not let you stop and the excellent Atmosphere does you the rest.
