Submerged is a third-person combat-free game in which you explore a mysterious flooded city and discover the beauty of desolation in vast outdoor environments. You take on the role of Miku, a young girl who has brought her wounded brother to the city in their small fishing boat. Navigate the flooded city streets by boat, scale the drowned buildings, and use your telescope to scour the city for the supplies needed to save your dying sibling. As you explore the city at your own pace, you encounter the habitat that flourishes in this colorful place and discover hidden objects that piece together the story of a broken world and a broken family.

Submerged is a chill, atmospheric game about exploration and uncovering a lost world. You boat around this flooded city, scaling crumbling ruins and discovering clues about what happened. There's no combat, just peaceful vibes and a beautiful soundtrack. It gets a bit repetitive towards the end, and I wish there was a little more...something. But if you want a few hours of relaxing exploration and pretty visuals, it's a unique experience worth checking out.

Probably the most generic platformer/collectathon I've ever played. Thats not to say it was... "bad?" The premise being a sister trying to save her brother is compelling. And she physically and visually gets weaker as the game progresses which is a nice touch. What I also like is how it is told with no dialogue. The design of the flooded city is also striking.

This game had a lot going for it but sadly the gameplay is so repetitive and uninspired. There also isn't anything mechanically going on. You automatically climb things, and you can't jump. So you're basically just running into walls the entire game. Her run speed is also super slow so the game feels like a slog start to finish.

I think what could have helped this game a lot is if getting to each tower was more free but also complicated. Like you would have to zip from one tower to the other to gain access or something. There ARE zip lines in the game that you use... 1 or 2 times?

You just use the boat to go everywhere and it adds to the dullness.

It is a fairly cute game but I'm not going to remember after a few days.

The climbing is so slow that by the time you actually get anywhere in this game the world will already be submerged

Find, climb, pick up, and so on 9 times.
The game has a pleasant musical accompaniment. Quite nice graphics.
An interesting plot, it seemed that there would be a sad ending, but everything turned out wrong.
The only negative is that the game is short. You can walk through it in the evening.

It's a chill little game about driving a boat to various places and climbing them. Not much more to it than that, though I am curious how the sequel builds upon the premise.

postscript: Not that much, it turns out.

Очень красивая, красочная и атмосферная игра. Просто сесть на пару-тройку часов и расслабиться.
Как и писалось в предыдущих отзывах - очень однотипный геймплей, что быстро надоедает.
