  • Strong atmospheric underwater setting with smooth gameplay and intuitive controls.

  • Unique exploration and mystery elements with well-crafted story and meaningful gear upgrades.
  • Voice acting and character dialogue are often seen as cheesy, monotone, or distracting.

    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally engaging, smooth, and intuitive, with enjoyable co-op and a charming, if occasionally janky, mechanical design. Some players find the pacing slow due to backstory delivery and repetitive tasks, while puzzles range from fine to slightly obtuse. Despite a relatively short playtime and limited replay value, the gameplay and story together provide a satisfying experience.

    • “Gameplay and story were very good.”
    • “The gameplay is smooth and the controls are intuitive.”
    • “The co-op gameplay is fun, and you may even try speed running it after you did your playthrough.”
    • “The intro alone was 5 minutes of backstory which could've been incorporated into the gameplay instead of having us sit through the voice acting.”
    • “Mechanically a bit rough around the edges.”
    • “The inability to swim faster while carrying objects makes sense mechanically, but the couple of levels with a fair bit of to-and-fro-ing seem a bit too laborious (at least while playing solo).”

  • story

    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 53% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The story received mixed reviews, with some praising its intriguing premise, natural unfolding, and enjoyable voice acting, while others found it unfocused, underdeveloped, or predictable. Although the narrative was appreciated for adding to the co-op adventure experience, some felt it lacked the engagement to fully hook players. Overall, the story contributes positively when combined with gameplay, despite occasional pacing or character development criticisms.

    • “The story was well done and I am thrilled to see what is to be continued.”
    • “The story of the game is great and requires puzzle-solving missions to be completed together.”
    • “The storyline, though simple, unfolds naturally and kept me curious to see what secrets lay deeper in the trench.”
    • “The intro alone was 5 minutes of backstory which could've been incorporated in the gameplay instead of having us sit through the voice acting.”
    • “Puzzles were lackluster and the story didn't push us to want to continue.”
    • “The story feels unfocused: while it has an intriguing premise, it feels underdeveloped, and the narrative never quite hooks you in.”

  • atmosphere

    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 34% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The game's atmosphere is consistently praised for its deep-sea mood, mysterious and haunting ambiance, and effective use of lighting that enhances immersion and tension. This dark, immersive environment perfectly complements the exploration and co-op problem-solving elements, creating a captivating and rewarding experience. However, occasional issues with controls and navigation can momentarily disrupt this otherwise strong atmospheric flow.

    • “It’s the kind of experience where atmosphere, mystery, and exploration blend perfectly, creating a captivating journey that rewards curiosity and keeps you searching for just one more secret beneath the waves.”
    • “From the moment you dive into the abyss, you’re pulled into an atmospheric journey that feels both thrilling and haunting.”
    • “Strong atmosphere: facility lighting, deep-sea mood, predator tension.”
    • “Atmosphere is strong, co-op structure is smart, but controls, camera behaviour and navigation clarity can break flow fast.”
    • “The atmosphere is dark and heavy in that 'why are we whispering??' way, but then we found the harpoons.”
    • “A strong concept with real atmosphere and a co-op loop that could be brilliant.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with praise for strong atmosphere, lighting, and a distinguished art style, especially in cut scenes and in-game visuals. However, some users criticize the graphics as outdated and reminiscent of early 2000s games, detracting from the overall experience.

    • “The in-game graphics were gorgeous, well done for that.”
    • “Distinguished art style you just end up looking forward to during cut scenes.”
    • “Strong atmosphere, facility looks great, lighting helps readability.”
    • “Horribly overacted, terrible characters, graphics look like something out of a really bad early 2000s game and the puzzles are dull and uninspired.”
    • “The graphics isn't the greatest but the gameplay and story makes up for it.”

  • monetization

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game offers less than five hours of gameplay and lacks meaningful replay value, which is disappointing given its price point of $20 or more.

    • “But less than 5 hours of gameplay without any replay value in 2024 for $20 or more...”
