Six days ago, Station Nereid went silent.

Thirty-eight crew live at the bottom of the trench, and their last transmission said only this: "...something down here is waking up..."

No submarine can reach them in time. Except one old bathysphere, and its pilot. You.

Descend from the sunlit shallows through the Twilight and Midnight zones into the black Abyss. Rescue the crew from drifting escape pods, keep your oxygen up, dodge jellyfish and urchins, fire sonar to clear the water and raise your shield to plough through danger. Spend the copepods you collect on upgrades and new hull finishes between dives.

Reach Station Nereid at 2,600 metres, find out what is waiting inside, then unlock Endless mode.

CONTROLS: Mouse: the bathysphere follows your cursor. Touch: drag anywhere to steer. Keyboard: arrow keys or WASD to steer, Space to fire sonar.
