About

Story

A mysterious disappearance. A submarine going deeper and deeper in a cave below ice. Strange creatures.

Follow a deep-sea biologist and his crew on a mission to rescue the "Icarus" and the lost family on board. Steer your submarine through tunnels, using only a sonar system. Be guided by waypoints left behind by the vanished family.

  • Pay close attention to the UI, all neccessary information is in there
  • Play the game in fullscreen and with headphones for the best experience
