It's hard to believe this a game created by only two people. It looks great, sounds great, and is way more unnerving than many of the horror games I've played. I don't have a fear of the ocean or big empty spaces, but always wanted to feel that panic. This is the only game that made me feel that ocean dread. Eat your heart out Subnautica, you didn't come close even with your building sized leviathans. Don't let the "2" in the title discourage you. It doesn't have anything to do with the first game. The first game is an endless survival against ever respawning sharks, this one has a story and levels in which you complete objectives.

The sound in this game is really well done. Very immersive. Visuals are also really good, adding to the overall tension and atmosphere in the game. The game-play loop is a bit simple. It boils down to a simple underwater shooter. Each "map" ("dive") follows the same pattern: First swim to the target location, second, find treasure and finally fight off an attack. As that loop is so simple, it gets repetitive quickly but it is saved by the great atmosphere. I pooped my pants several times.

This is my favourite underwater game. Looks stunning. Horror themed. Great weapons. Easy to pick up and play. Just trying to get that final achievement. Deserves a much bigger audience.

Spear gun shark survival while collecting treasure. Graphics are beautiful and game play is smooth. I found myself very immersed in the environment because of how beautiful the game is. Alot of people are hating on it because of ai or something but in my opinion this games better than %90 of games that have come out in the past couple years. Grab it and give it a try before you listen to these weirdos crying about ai. Try the game out its $7 on sale. If you dont like it you can easily refund it. People just love to cry because they need attention. Welcome to the internet.
