15 itemsAbout the Game
You are in a mysterious place, Aquariums and Liminal Halls surround you... As you go deeper your mind starts to play tricks, did you see something move inside the tank? Or is it just your Thalassophobia?
The deeper you wander Aquariums, the more inevitable it becomes — you’ll have to step into the water and face what waits inside the tanks.
Lost in a vast liminal facility of strange Aquariums, swimming pools and corridors, you must uncover the truth behind its creation... You will encounter entities like the Divers who seem to be in some kind of trance.
You will find sharks, lost divers, gigantic whales and a sense of a horrible past... The creatures you encounter will haunt you and twist your perception of what’s real.
AQUARIUMS has seven unique chapters, each taking 10 to 30 minutes to play.
AQUARIUMS draws inspiration from internet phenomena like liminal spaces, found footage, thalassophobia, the Poolrooms, and the Backrooms.
Created by a solo developer driven by a love for horror games — and a lifelong fear of sharks and deep water.
