Description
Deepwater is a thrilling solo game that drops you into the role of a tech billionaire taking over a struggling underwater research and farming facility in the year 2047. You've got your work cut out for you - six months prior, an industrial accident released a genetically engineered mutagen called Zenobia into the sea, and now it's up to you to turn things around. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, you'll be diving into the action in no time, navigating the challenges of managing your facility and making tough decisions to overcome the dangers that lurk beneath the waves. As you play, you'll recruit a team of experts, including marine biologists, deep-sea engineers, and security personnel, to help you achieve your goals. You'll also have the opportunity to build onto your facility, develop cutting-edge underwater tech, and construct submersibles to aid in your mission. But beware - underwater earthquakes, superstructure fails, flooding, eco-terrorist intrusions, and shark attacks are just a few of the hazards you'll face. Each decision you make will have a significant impact on your resources, cash, crew, and moral standing, and the environment will be affected too. With a playtime of 45 to 60 minutes, you'll be fully immersed in the world of Deepwater, making tough choices and navigating the suspenseful narrative that unfolds. Designer Mark Chaplin has crafted a game that's all about balance and strategy, where you'll need to manage your actions carefully to succeed. With a unique blend of deck, bag, and pool building, hand management, and worker placement mechanics, Deepwater offers a fresh and exciting experience each time you play. Will you emerge as a philanthropist or a greedy business magnate? The choice is yours, and the outcome will depend on the decisions you make as you navigate the challenges of Deepwater. With its engaging gameplay and immersive storyline, Deepwater is an unforgettable adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
