Underwater levels in games can make you flounder. Weird water physics, breath timers, and clunky character movements have historically made submerged worlds daunting. But Giant Squid’s subaquatic adventure
ABZÛ
takes all that away, turning even the clumsiest of player inputs into the graceful movements of an aqua-dancer. It’s an effortless, relaxing adventure that makes you feel totally at home in its aquatic world.
THIS UNDERWATER EMPIRE MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU’RE A PART OF ITS WORLD
ABZÛ is a wordless story set within the depths of the ocean. You play as a diver who’s helping restore life back to parts of the sea that are decaying. As you delve deeper, you’ll begin to unravel the mysteries of an ancient civilisation and start to understand the diver’s origins. The game has moments of quiet reflection, rushes of action, and playful interactions that use its underwater world to great effect.
