More about this game
Your goal is to keep your submarine intact and oxygen flowing for a full 120-second ascent to the surface. You constantly switch between three lanes to grab treasure shells and oxygen bubbles while avoiding dangerous mines. As you climb higher, the ocean currents speed up and obstacles spawn much faster. A run ends in success if you survive the timer, or fails if you lose all three hearts or run completely out of oxygen.
Tips
- Save your bubble shield for tight situations, as it takes exactly eight seconds to cool down after activation and only lasts for 2.6 seconds.
- Prioritize oxygen bubbles over treasure shells when your air drops below 25 percent, since running out of air ends the run immediately.
- Hitting a mine removes one heart and also drains 8 oxygen, so taking damage while low on air is extremely dangerous.
Questions
How do I win the game?
You must survive the upward journey for exactly 120 seconds. The progress bar on the right side of the screen tracks your depth until you reach the surface.
What happens if I hit a mine?
Crashing into a mine removes one of your three hearts and instantly drains 8 oxygen from your tank. If you lose all three hearts, your submarine sinks.
How does the bubble shield work?
When activated, the shield protects your submarine for 2.6 seconds. It absorbs exactly one mine impact without taking damage, but requires an 8-second cooldown before you can use it again.
