- “The gameplay loop gets a bit tiring by the end of the game, but feels pretty solid otherwise: dive, gather materials and fish, get to the base, shoot the fish, upgrade, dive deeper - rinse and repeat.”
- “Plays kind of like one of those flash games that focus on upgrade, repeat, upgrade, but with a higher quality of gameplay.”
