About the Game

What lurks beneath the surface of the water?
Due to a mishap, you find yourself all alone at sea. From now on, it's all about overcoming your fear of the ocean and exploring the game world by swimming. You are not as alone as you think. A wide variety of underwater creatures will accompany you on your journey through the open sea. Explore your surroundings until you run out of energy to swim.

Jump into the water and explore the deep


Whether the open sea or a lake, every body of water hides its monsters beneath the surface. Overcome your fear and explore another world. A world where you are just a guest and not the top of the food chain. Face your fear and explore a lake or the vastness of the sea.

Another world under a mirror


Swim for your life and try to leave the nightmare behind you. On your journey through the water many different monsters await you, some are harmless and others will make your blood run cold.

Do not forget to catch your breath


Don't dive too deep or swim too fast or you'll run out of the air you need to live. Divide your energy well or your powers to swim will leave you sooner than expected and you will sink like a stone.
