About the Game

Dive into the underwater world of Sonar Scout, where you navigate a lonely submarine tasked with exploring the depths to activate lost beacons in order to restore connection to a forgotten civilization.

Your keen sense of navigation and ability to memorize the landscape will be vital to survival. Beware, you aren't alone and quick reflexes might save you from the hazards down below.

As you explore new environments you’ll unlock new submarines with unique abilities.

Think you can master the depths faster than your friends? Display it proudly on the leaderboards and challenge them to prove you wrong!

Sonar Scout was made by a team of 6 developers from 5 different countries who all met at Spelkollektivet, a co-living space for game developers located in Sweden. We'd love for you to join us on Discord where you can offer feedback and share your best runs with the community.
