About the Game

A psychological horror set in a Lovecraftian setting, blending with the cold reality of a military submarine trapped in the depths of the North Atlantic. This story follows ordinary people pushed to the brink of madness as they encounter the unthinkable horrors beneath the waves.

LOVECRAFTIAN HORROR

Ancient forces have awakened beneath the ocean, and all contact with the surface is lost. Seek answers at the heart of an apocalypse aboard a nuclear submarine.

MAKE HARD CHOICES

Every crew member is more than just an asset. They are human beings, haunted by their own fears and suffering. You have to make hard choice – complete the mission or preserve your humanity.

YOU ARE IN CHARGE NOW

You are the captain’s right hand. Assign tasks, maintain discipline, and don’t let madness overcome your mind.

LOOK INTO THE ABYSS

Scan the depths with sonar. But remember, not everything in the ocean follows military protocol… Is it another submarine, or something alive?
